greekskii 2,136 Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 plenty of stuff to sink to the bottom, I know what it is, i've fished many a lake which suffers badly from it. that and a lack of wind is not good for WQ. It has to end up somewhere Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ianain 1,071 Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Right click the image on the dropbox page and click "copy image location" On the bottom right of the reply box (the one you fill in to post a reply), there is an "insert other media" button, click on that, then click on insert from URL - then paste the url into the box click on "insert into post" dayvid 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bluelabel 1,544 Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 tried that... the text in the box gets surrounded with a red tinge and just sits there till you either click out or click submit reply and nowt happens Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ianain 1,071 Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 Start on the drop box web site to select the image, then flick back to carp.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bluelabel 1,544 Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 that's exactly what I did....! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ianain 1,071 Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 What browser are you using? Can you take a screenshot when you get the red border? On a laptop you press FN + the END key (underneath it has PRTSC) on a standard keyboard there should be a print screen button - with a bit of luck, your system will let you save it, if not ... (not sure what operating system you are using) but there should be a basic paint program where you can paste the image, then save it to your PC and upload on here using the other way.

bluelabel 1,544 Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 I'm on firefox on Win 10.... okay just tried to upload the file directly from the PC & noticed the file I was trying to upload was 8.21 mb, so that explains why It won't upload from the pc as there is an 8mb limit on uploads... that said would this stop the Carp.com site stopping the link to the dropbox file...?

bluelabel 1,544 Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 (edited) I give up I've tried 11 times now to post a pic and I've come to the conclusion that Drop Box is pants or it's not working with this PC as it should Edited July 23, 2017 by bluelabel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bluelabel 1,544 Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 I tried cropping the pics to decrease the file size and it still won't work.... I can't even get the PC to post the screenshot that I took..... I'm going to call it a day... thank you for all your help Ianain.... it was good of you to try....

ianain 1,071 Posted July 23, 2017 Report Share Posted July 23, 2017 (edited) Yes you're right about the limit, the drop box image as far as I can tell it is about 344 K which shouldn't be a problem, and there might be restrictions in-between when sending large files, I think drop box will reduce image size and quality automatically as I think carp.com does as well. You should scale the image rather than crop it, there are tools online that can do this, or you can install some software - online is probably easiest but I do it on my own machine. One last thing to try (out of curiosity), go to your drop box image and right click - save image as, then try uploading that from your pc (or save it from this thread!).
