how to add a photo

Hi @BlueBay Zahlia here, I'm moderating for a little while 🙂

Did you want to know hot to change your profile picture? Or upload a photo to a post??

Oops sorry @Zahlia

How to upload a photo 🙂

No worries @BlueBay 🙂

When you reply to a comment, there is a little box you can click on at the top where are the editing stuff is. Its a symbol of what looks like mountains and a sun/moon. If you click that, and then click the "choose file" button you should be able to search for your photo you want. Then you just press upload 🙂

Did that help?

OK i will give it a go later on when I finish my scarf.

Thank you. 🙂

Hi @Michelle_90

On the desktop version of the forums you:

- Press you username at the top right of the page to open your profile

- There will be a blank image on the left hand side where your profile pic will go

- Press this image

- An option should be at the bottom choose a profile pic

- You can either pick from some pre-exisiting images or upload your own

I hope this helps! Please let me know if the instructions don't work or need clarification

Is there any chance that the editing functionality will be added to the mobile site? As when I'm accessing from my phone is quite regularly can't use the desktop site as it comes up with a Java script error. I'm not tech savvy enough to completely understand how it all works to know if this is a problem with my phone or not.

Hi @Unloveable I'm by no means a tech-savvy lady but I'll run this by the Forums managers @NikNik and @CherryBomb and see if they can answer this question for you. 🙂

Hi @Unloveable

Unfortunately the mobile version does not have the capability to change your settings. The mobile version is very much a simplified version of the Forums, as most mobile versions of websites are.

In saying that though, we always take on feeback - so I will ensure it's noted that the 'edit' button is something wanted on the mobile version.

Thanks Unloveable.

Hi @NikNik

If I'm trying to upload a picture (image from my computer) why does it say "upload error" when I try.

That doesn't make sense does it???

Any suggestions, I am wanting to change my profile picture. And I thought I could get a picture from the internet and use that.
