Default how to download pictures

I need help to download pictures. I found the tree and clicked on it, then browsed to find my picture which I found and then clicked on upload files and nothing happened. What am I doing wrong?

I have found that since I went to DSL that my pictures take longer to upload (yes, I know this should not be, but it is). A simple question first - did you wait long enough to let the picture load?

If the file is too large it will say failed to upload or something similar, hope you can figure it out, I love seeing pictures of everyone's projects. Don't give up, thanks!

When I use the little tree on my iPad, after upload, I must press submit before the picture will appear. This might be your problem?

I use Windows Photo Viewer to re-size my photos. I hope that's what you have. You must do this before you post. Go to Windows Photo Viewer, pick OPEN from the choices then click on Microsoft Office Picture Manager, then click on Edit. Way over on the right, see Resize? Click on it. Choose "Predefined Width x Height" and choose "Web, Large". Click Okay on the bottom of this column and then save the resized photo. Remember it's description (either name or number ) so you can find it again. If you don't have the windows program, look for a program that will resize it - my recent photo was resized to 113 KB in size. Now, back to the Quilting Board, start your new post and type your message. Then scroll WAY down until you see "Manage Attachments" in blue. Click on that then "Browse" for your photo. Find it, click on it and click open. You should see your photo name, number or description show up next to Browse. Click Upload. See "uploading". When done you should see your photo identified under "Current Attachments" If so, click "Close this window" which is in blue. Now you should see your photo description under "Manage Attachments" Now scroll WAY down and on the right see Submit New Thread. Click and you are done. DO NOT PREVIEW POST. You will lose your photo. Hope that helps

I am unable to download any pictures from the desktop computer. I've tried multiple times over the months. Used to work just fine for me, but won't download anything anymore. I figured this site had changed something or other.
