    Photo posting issue. Help needed please.

    Hi
    Can you please help?
    I have a laptop at home and a PC at work. The homemadetools.net is easier to use on the PC, for posting photos as I can select several photos at once, posting on the laptop I have to selected photos individually. Can you please tell me if it is possible to change the settings?
    Many thanks again

    I am not sure of the nature of the problem you have with posting pics.
    Is it that you can only view pics one at a time on your laptop or that you can only select one at a time?, Ctrl click will select individual pics to batch drag.
    I have settled on a method which works for me by creating a desktop folder called post pics and using (free) FastStone Photo Resizer to resize to 800x600 and sending them there I can select all and drag to post. The originals are still left where they were. After posting I empty the folder ready for next time. You probably know all this already so dont be offended by my comments and you do good video.

    Hi olderdan
    No, not at all. I will try your suggestion. I can view all phots on my laptop but when I upload to Homemadetools.net the site will only allow one file at a time. I am new to posting so it is a steep learning curve.
    I have just bought today a tripod for my phone as I use this to take the videos. Must learn how to edit, get the lighting right, focus the camera better, work to a better script, and make sure the camera is pointing at the subject matter, but other than that I am doing fine lol oh yes make sure the compressor is switched off to.
    Thank you again

    If you have one computer on which photo posting is working correctly, and one on which it is not, you're already halfway to solving the problem. First troubleshooting step would be to clear your browser settings on the laptop, and then re-login to the forum and test the photo uploading. We also have a Practice Posting subforum where you can experiment.
