Sorry for your loss. I cannot find a user by that name on Quilting Board.

This is rather long, but put the simple instructions at the end.
We like pictures. In order to post pictures on Quilting Board, you will probably need to reduce or compress the picture to a
file size that is smaller than 2MB. How to post images can be found at
https://www.quiltingboard.com/attach...020-01-17-.pdf
Don't forget to scroll over to the far right to find and click on the "
Upload" button. As shown at
Standard Sewing Machine Co. Paragon
I have found that only the big
red "Reply" button or "
Quote" work to give me the
paper clip icon to work for adding pictures.

Some additional info regarding reducing images at post #4 and images for the scroll and upload button can be found at #5 of
quilt block ID?
Another way to post pictures can be found at
2021/2022, 2.5” Birthday Swap
And how to use an ipad to post pictures can be found at
Uploading photos
Or simply -
- Make sure pictures are smaller than 2MB
- Click on red "Reply" button
- Click on the paper clip icon
- Click browse - choose picture/s. (only 5 allowed per post)
- Once they show up as being loaded, Scroll over to the right side and click on "Upload"
- After the pictures show up as being attached, you can close that window and go back to the screen to finish posting your post.
Some additional notes -
The photos generally need to be reduced to less than 2MB in size. I have heard of people sending an email to themselves as it will ask if you want to reduce the size.
I have an
android phone and when I tried to reply on Quilting Board while in mobile view None of the options for adding pictures was available. However, there is an option down at the bottom left of the page that is for
Full Site when I tapped on "Full Site" It then looked like the way it looks on my lap top. So it would have the Red Reply and the Go Advanced options.
Do Not Preview post.
ETA - I've added some notes to the instructions that Iceblossom linked to.
