Bumble bee shot

New to forum, just trying to post an image to see if it works. I click the "image" button and try to load a pix but I get an "undefined" exclamation point dot to the right of the file size. If I use Basic Uploader it tells me I don't have privileges etc. Systems says I can post new threads, IMG is on etc. Tried contacting adm but no answer. Anyway, not sure what is going on but I can't seem to upload images - hoping someone might understand why.

I guess you forget to resize your photos to the max permit in the forum.

You need to be a subscribed and paid member of the site in order to be able to upload photos to the forum. Otherwise as a regular member you can easily host photos on a free image host (flickr is very popular with photographers) and then use image codes to embbed the photo here in the site.
Just open up the flickr photo - go to all sizes and select the size you want to show - select it and then in the new window right click on the photo and copy the address/url line. Then paste it into a post here between image tags like:
[ img ] paste link here [ /img ]
without the spaces to show the photo here.

Make a flikr account and upload them there and then paste the share code of your image into your message here.

I to had the exact same problem and never realized (until reading this particular thread) that you needed to be a paying member to upload photos. I also couldnt find a sticky about posting guidelines, and still cant :/
