Hey Wayne:

I love the color of the Porsche 959 !!!

Did you finish-up your 959 and what color did you end with?

Post a picture, please.

This is exactly what you get when you tell an engineer "I want you to double the horsepower of the car."

Maybe I need to be more specific. I opened the "upload a photo..." dialog box.

I opened "my computer" window with thumbnails chosen as the view.

I dragged (drug?) a picture from the "my computer" window to the "upload a photo..." window and my picture filled the "upload a photo..." window completely.

Now what? All I see is my picture in the "upload a photo..." window.

I know I must be missing something simple. Sorry I am computer illiterate.

Having not uploaded photos before, I had to figure out that from the "Quick Reply" box, click "Go Advanced"opening a larger "Reply to Thread" box. Under the box your typing into click "Click here to Upload a Photo". This opens a separate box which you drag your photo into. It worked fine from there.
I'm using Chrome

I just checked again and the message "I'm finished..close the window" pops up when the pic has been loaded. Does yours show that?

It doesn't work quite right with macOS Sierra & Safari.

When I click on the "Click here to Upload a Photo..." link, I get this screen. That's fine.



But most of the time, I scroll to bottom of the left pane in Finder and choose 'Photos' to access my photo library. Using this method, I can't select multiple pictures. If I hold down the Command key to select multiple images, it only lets me upload the first one I choose.



Edit: Actually the 2nd picture I dragged into the same upload appears to be a broken link.

I can drag and drop multiple files into the window IF I know what directory the files are in and the filenames I want to upload. I saved these screen captures to the desktop and I tried it that way and it worked.

The thing is that most of the time I had no idea what directory the pictures are in or their filenames. It's just sort of the photo management paradigm of macOS (and earlier versions of OS X).
