Help on posting a thread.

[GLW]

I know how to post a new thread and I know how to add photos to the new thread.
What I don’t know how to do is add a caption to each photo briefly explaining what the photo is.
That’s question 1.

my next question is, can I begin a new thread and pause (save) the working thread to work on later?

Third (I think this my be tied to the second question).
I tried earlier to send out a new thread where I wanted to attach six photos. It wouldn’t go. When I backed it down to three photos it worked fine.
If I want to send out 9-12 photos with a caption on each how would I do that?

I apologize for not knowing any of this and hope someone can help and/or show me a resource to get some help.

have a good one,
Gary

There's probably a limit on how much you can upload in each thread, so you may have to resize the photos to something like 800x600.
You can't add notations onto photos itself while posting, but you can add text between each photo, and maybe change the size of the text.
Add photos to you post, then add text between each. In the examples I changed the text to BOLD and font to 18 by using the buttons at the top of the post when entering text/phots.

After spending a couple decades on forums, I also know that if you do plan to post enough pictures that you expect to surpass the size/count limit, you can create the thread's initial post, and then reply to it immediately with the first post (just put "saved" or similar) after saving the initial post. Then you can edit the reply post later to add additional photos/comments. If it's going to be quite lengthy you can always reserve more than the first reply as needed.

I can see how that would work. Thank you!

The limit is on megabits size of the photo. I’ve posted up to 6 photos with a high megabit size. You can always use a photo hosting website like image shack, they downsize the photos automatically maintaining the quality.

Here are a couple screen shots that may help.

Saving a draft use;

Adding a caption for a photo or URL but you must use a image hosting website;

Hope this helps.???
