I need help! I have never been able to include any pic's on this web and would like to.I just got a new Huawei P20 phone (android) and my laptop is almost new so if someone could give me some advise that would be great. I do know that a thread is worthless without pics so I would like to get with the times. My son is the tech geek and will be home from college tonight for one night and will be back for the weekend to help me if I need it. So how about some instructions. Thanks

I run an android as well and do not use tap a talk. I use the actual web page over my phone.
I find I am unable to load pictures due to their size.

This can be a pain in the ass.
The pictures i want to load. I then screen shot. This somehow makes the file smaller.

On the forum at the bottom of the text box there is a button that says go Advance. I click it. Then I click the paper clip button. A new window opens. From there I select my screen shots I want. Click upload. Once they upload the files will appear in blue text below where you selected the pictures. If there is an error or wont upload. They appear in black text above.
Then close window. Add your text. And submit.

Then delete the screen shots to avoid duplicates on my phone

I'm sure there are much better ways. I found this way works. So I go with it.

Taptalk doesn't work for me,when I choose a picture it says you can only choose one which is all i've done.

Some times it won't load a Pic cause it's too big of file size, so I go into Pic and change Pic size to smallest, then post the Pic,

Tapatalk is the way to go, I hate using the main site, it's slow and sucks to do anything

Time is important to older farts. We haven't got time to mess with things that should be done right in the first place! Young guns are just lazy these days!!
Don't lie, you have nothing better to do

Just tried it again,I threw a picture in the random picture thread.It only lets me download the last picture in the camera roll.By the way the random picture thread is a great place to practice down loading pictures.

Don't worry Huawei is controlled by the state in China so they're seeing all your pics and they'll end up on the internet anyway.
