Attaching files??

[grannywin]

Could someone give me detailed instructions on attaching files to a message in one of these forums? I am trying to upload some shapes and don't know how to do it. I assumed the paper clip would attach, but it doesn't seem to be the answer. Where is the attachment icon?

I am going by memory here, cause I can't look at it while I am in this message, but here is how it goes.
Go to the embellishment section or the template section, start a new thread. Once you enter your message scroll down and look for the part that same something like "manage attachments" then it says "browse". Find the file you want to upload and double click, then push the button that says "upload files" When it is done uploading, then hit the "submit reply"

Sounds like a lot of step, but it is pretty easy.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Marion. Since Russell already uploaded some great shapes to the forum, I will have to wait until my next creative moment to practice your instructions. It sounds simple enough! Does the attachment only work with a new message?

To tell you the truth, I don't really know, never tried it, but don't see why you couldn't.

Let me know when you figure it out.

When you reply to a message, there's a button called "Manage Attachments" under "Additional Options"... Click that, browse for your file, then upload... Finish your message by clicking "Submit Reply"...

You can add an attachment anyplace in the thread...
