The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

Just testing to see if I can upload a picture direct from my laptop rather than compromise my ID and firearms security by using Flicker etc.

You would need to extract the image from the zip file and then upload it to the forum if you wanted people to see it before downloading it.

Ahhh , the original picture (from my boing 6s+) was too large so I tried zipping it up...
I use MacBookPros and I'm just trying to figure out how to resize images with "Photos" program....

Lunch time testing ....

That worked

Good

Hopefully I can post up some pictures and a review of my new rifle tonight then......

I do have a flicker account, but it has a lot of pictures that would identify me too easily..... and we need to be careful posting up pictures of evil guns on forums

If you are that worried, create another account?

Or use Dropbox ? you can have a "public" folder to share things from, just right click on the photo you want to share, choose "Copy public link" then paste it into the image posting link that comes up here when you click on the Img button,

As above but the "***" would say "img" and the result would be,

Dropbox might work but to be honest I would need separate public folders for gun pictures. If I mixed in work related pictures people would know who I am.

You can have as many folder and sub-folders as you wish, I have a one (as shown above) for the stuff I post here,
