There is a new button, next to the BOLD, ITALIC, UNDERLINE , http://, img, CODE, and QUOTE buttons at the top of your posting window... and that new button is called, IMG UPLOAD.

As you have probably already noticed, the original photo upload feature (BROWSE, which is located below the posting window) loads your images at the top of your message, and doesn't allow you to mingle your text with your uploaded photos; all images always appear at the beginning of your post.

This new button will allow you to upload images anywhere within your post that you like!  Like this ...!

Find the spot where you'd like to insert an image and then click IMG UPLOAD.  Follow the directions in the small popup window that appears, et voila!

Please note:  The IMG UPLOAD button will NOT generate thumbnails for the Bears for Sale and Showcase forums. You will have to use the old method for posting at least your first photo in those forums, if you want a thumbnail or "Gallery View" to appear.

Enjoy your gift from Quy, our wizard and beloved tech genius!

Dilu, just FYI...

Previously, the way it was done was to use the IMG button.  That button inserted some code into your post which directed the post to "look for" your picture on the web, in the location you specified.  However, this required that you have image hosting somewhere; a location on the web where your photos were stored and could be accessed.  And many people don't have that, or didn't know how to get that.  So Quy created a way for people to upload their photos directly to TEDDY TALK instead.  However, that always put them at the start of the post.

Now, with this new button, you get the same "look" as you would if you used the generic IMG button.  Meaning that you can insert your photos anywhere you want within your post!  The difference between IMG UPLOAD and IMG is that with IMG UPLOAD, you don't need your photos hosted on the web.  With this new button, IMG UPLOAD, you simply upload your images directly from your hard drive, to TEDDY TALK.

It's still possible and entirely okay to use the IMG button if your photos are already web hosted, and you can find them most easily in that way, or prefer to use that method.

Yet another of the twenty gajillion ways there are to do the very same thing...

Yes, you are doing it correctly. However, your filename contains spaces "bear dress ebay 002.jpg". Please rename it without spaces before uploading. Maybe you want to rename it like this: bear_dress_ebay_002.jpg

This feature will be fixed so you don't have to rename your files if they do contain spaces.
