Out of the blue I'm having trouble posting pics here


Recommended Posts

Help me Help me!!!!........I haven't been able to post from my Photobucket for several months now. Used to work fine, but not anymore. I hit the URL, it say's "copied", but when I right click to paste it there is no paste option in the box...still works on spotlight, haven't been to SA forums in a few years and not going back to see if it works there. Is there a new secret button I need to hit to allow this? Please help as I am jonesin' to post some recent finished builds and my on the bench stuff. Thanks for any help you may provide.

Sometimes I have the same problem. But usually when I click the right button of that mouse, and if there comes no paste - option, I move the mouse right next to the cursor and then click again. The paste - option is there. Or then hit "ctrl" + "v"...

Can you hit control V or Command V (on a Mac)?

Are you using the simple editor, or the full?

I have a PC...no MAC. I tried both editors with same results, haven't given up yet, just short on time and looking for the easy answer(button?) :) .

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I'll give them a try tomorrow if I have time to get on here.

When it won't pull up the paste option Rob, left click again beside your post and hit enter. Works for me. I had to add Firefox as a browser to get my Photobucket to work properly.

Yes, it's hold down Command (Apple), then hit v, on a Mac.

Is the OP just sliding the mouse cursor over the Photobucket image and clicking inside the IMG Code field so it shows "Copied"? Then Command + v to paste it in the forum post. That's how I do it on Mac. (No left or right click on my Mac mouse)

You shouldn't need any "paste option" showing here. Just copy from Photobucket and paste here into your post window (PC paste is control, V).

Yes, I do the mouse over thing so it shows copied, then I right click in the post box, hit paste in the pop up window and done, no looking at or touching of the keyboard. Seems easier to me and I've always done it that way. I did add some pics to a PM this morning ( the mouse way ) and it was a bit glitchy but worked in the end. I'm going to attempt to post again in the morning after work, trying the control V way , I'll let you know if it makes a difference. Thanks again
