I did the Additional Options / Choose File, and the filename was displayed as the chosen file (a .png). But the picture didn't show up in the preview (unlike that one the other day that did appear in the preview but not in the posted post due to some software issue that Graham spotted).
I didn't want to risk posting it without the pic, so uploaded it elsewhere and supplied a link. But shouldn't the attach option have worked?

I can see those pesky ducks

yes because I did it as a link to an external hosting site in the end, as the attach didn't appear to be working.| Re: Couldn't upload a pic Posted by matth1j at 19:44, 17th September 2025 | |
(Forgot to say that image size <2MB.)

Personally, I prefer to include a link to an image on an external site when I post an item.
It then appears, as an image, in context, within my post. CfN.

Sure, but presumably it would still be good to understand why the attach didn't work? Speaking as a software developer

Attached images do not show in the preview. That's just how it is.

Ok, I think I'm getting confused - when I said above:
unlike that one the other day that did appear in the preview but not in the posted post due to some software issue that Graham spotted
thinking about it, it was a link to another site, not an attach.Apologies - next time I'll just cross my fingers and post
