When you go to post or reply, near the bottom of the page, there will be an area for file attachments.

Choose the file on your hard drive, then post your message. The image will automatically be uploaded to our servers and and inserted into your post.

Make sure that your image is less than 100 kilobytes in file size and that the image is less than 500 X 500 pixels in size.

Try doing a test post here by replying to this post, then I can see if the image even uploaded or not.

Let me know.

I tried to upload it told me that this type of file is not allowed. It's a .bmp file

.bmp file extension is not allowed by the forum software. For now, save the image in another file type, then upload.

I will look into changing mime types to allow for .bmp but it may take a little while.

Thanks.

I changed it to a jpeg file but it still tells me this type of file is not allowed. I'm trying to put it in the Polaris forum under"What Polaris do you ride?"
