Had a couple of questions.

Typically if I see a pic I like somewhere Ill save it to a folder on my computer. Tried to copy from the folder and paste in a post on NES and wouldnt happen. I searched for the same pic online and copy and pasted fine. What am I doing wrong and how can I post a pic from a file I have on my computer?

When I attempt to post a pic from my phone, it asks for a address (I think), like it wants me to give it a link to a pic online. How to I post a pic that I snapped with my phone and have saved in the phone gallery?

Thanks
 
Perfect. Thanks. That solves the phone issue.

That solves both of them, actually. If you have a file stored in a directory on your computer, you can use the Upload a File button to browse to it. You actually have to copy the image itself (not the file - it's a weird distinction) to paste directly into the text box.

Thanks, Ill play around with it some more. I actually tried opening the file, right clicking, copy, and paste in the reply box as well but didnt work. Ill try again. Thanks for the reply.

Sure! That's a bit odd - if you open it in an image editor or your browser, and then right click/copy, it should paste into the reply box - not quite sure why that wouldn't be working for you to be honest.
