Any idea why this is?

Steve, I have taken three images off your build build threa

The three images seem to be displaying OK.

I have used, the attachments option, Add Files, and Place inline to display them.

Thanks Miles

If you look at my build thread though, you will see that after the initial three photos, they are displaying again, umpteen times, with a heading of "Attachments?"

At least they are on my PC, iMac, laptop, tablet and phone

Morning Steve,

The problem is that there is a weird attachment (called 20180324_192857.jpg), which is refusing to go away, even after trying to delete it. Try deleting this attachment. I've tried to, but it's refusing to go.

If you can delete the post, and try re-doing it, it "may" fix it.

Miles.

Hi, Any ideas why I can't see the pictures in my post? I follow the instructions then everything is fine. Click preview still good and then when I click submit only one appears?

Thanks

I think I have answered my own question.

It seems to work if I don't click preview first.

Thanks

Your pictures have been taken upsidedown, or that's what the forum thinks.

Have a look at what you have taken, and see what your PC / laptop thinks they are.

If they are upsidedown, then you will need to rotate them, save as a new image, and then add them to the forum.
