    Is it really that difficult to get a website that is a little more user friendly?

    Why do I have to work for thirty minutes to figure out how to upload pictures on this forum?

    I still can't get them to post anyway but upside down

    I post 20 photos a day on the morning funny with no issues. I put them on with my iPhone and iPad. Are you using a laptop?

    Click manage attachments, select file and upload... nothing to figure out

    Usually if the upload fails it s because the file is too large. People don’t realize that picture files have become huge and must be resized before uploading. This is not an issue with this forum...

    I have resized all my photos and every one posts upside down. Even if I make the original upside down and upload it, it's STILL upside down

    Maybe the version of wordpress is old. I cannot open anyone's photos on chromebook or android anymore.

    I normally don't upload images to here. Instead I upload them to imgur.com and link them from there. Just copy the BB code on the picture and post it here. You can also rotate images on imgur.

    I am guessing you haven’t tried to use the search function yet...... The clunkiness and inaccurate results is my pet peeve here: you practically need to know the answer before you search!

    Considering what we pay for the service, I don’t think we should complain ...

    Ditto Pascal.

    We are very fortunate that Sam's provides and maintains this site. I've saved thousands of dollars from free and accurate advice received here. I also just enjoy spending a few minutes a day reading about what other weird people who own antique boats are doing. When I sold my last Hatteras the buyer was familiar with the brand, boat and my use and maintenance history by reading posts here.

    So please keep rewarding the guys at Sam's with your purchasing dollars. It's a great investment.
