Hi sft456 ,

Looking at your previous posts, I wondered whether you are trying to post the photo on a lookup request board ? If you are, the attachment won't work in the conventional way. This is so people are unable to post images and possibly infringe on copyright.

Otherwise to post on the restoration board, if you make sure it's a jpeg, below 500kb in size and the filename is unique - which you can alter by adding other letters or figures - it should work ?

Only just noticed your heading - obviously a restoration, sorry !

Fingers crossed and good luck !  :)

Right. It is a jpg file and it is under 500kb, but why doesn't it attach. When previewing, it says you will to have to reattach the attached

Now what?

Once you've changed the filename - you can't preview, it won't let you.

You'll just have to post and hope for the best !  :-\
