Help adding pictures

[Janicept]

I'm finally getting around to posting pictures from our NCL Gem cruise a week ago and I can't get them to upload.  I started a new topic then tried to add pictures all on my phone.  It looks like they're loading then says error can't load.  Does anyone know what the issue may be?

Here is also a "test" forum where you can perfect your posting technique before posting on the main forums.

In the past when I wanted to dupload photos to a thread on CruiseCritic forum, I always found it easier to just open the photo on my computer first, choose "copy" and then just "paste" it in to my CC post. Often when trying to upload photos to the "Drag files here to attach, or choose files" the photos does NOT get oploaded correctly. I have no idea why - but since I found a different way to do it, I just didn't "investigate" it further...

Maybe it's a platform issue, because loading them from my MacBook is a simple as clicking on the "choose files" prompt at the bottom of the editing box and selecting what photos I want to use.  They'll be added to the end of your post under Uploaded Images.  If you do nothing else, they'll be at the bottom of your post after you Submit Reply.  If you want to place them elsewhere in your story,  cursor to where in your text you want a particular photo to go and then hover over the bottom right hand corner of the uploaded image to see the Insert prompt.  That will put the photo wherever you want it in the body of your text.

Thanks everyone.  I figured out how to make album and I puts links to them in my post instead.
