I can see the pictures....... but I'm magic.

Hard to tell from your pics..... maybe you were going 80mph.... but it seems like you may have covered some of the tiny wires on the edge of the cells....... guess my magic isn't working that well.

Glad that you read the controller instructions. Some people miss that step and damage their controller.

And still no photos? I admit I am stumped. The usual problem is that the member who is trying to post misses a step, usually the one that requires scrolling way down off the bottom of the page and clicking "UPLOAD" or "SAVE" or one of those. Let me nose around and see if I can find anything.

What happened to the first post that link back to his photos". (before it disappeared) I clicked on that link then copy/pasted the web address to any one of the 3 pictures. I pasted that address into my browser, when that pic opened up, I was able to scroll though all 3 pics.

Wavery -

The idea is that the pics have to show up with the message, with no additional fuss. If you have to click on a link, then copy a web address, then open a new browser window, then paste the address into the new window, then repeat the whole thing for additional pictures, it won't be a very popular procedure - especially for folks who insist on using a phone for interacting with the forum.

Bill,

I wasn't suggesting that the normal procedure change.....

I was merely asking where that post went. All I did was copy/paste any one of the 3-IMG posts into my browser and I was able to view all 3 pics. I'm not suggesting that others do that, it was just a work around because the OP is having difficulty following the instructions.

I think that he is missing the part where he has to scroll down to see "Manage Attachments" (then open his pic file and post his pics) for the original post. If he wants to add pics in an edited post, he has to click on "Go Advanced" then scroll way down to "Manage Attachments".

I can't do any of that on my phone (probably because I'm old). I have to do it on my laptop. Just what I'm used to.

Default Pictures take two

This should work. All the tape is to the very edge of the cells but does not cover any part of it.
