    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 take pics with my iPhone. They will post upside down from the phone to the site. So, I send my pics to my laptop, open them and spin them 360 and close. From then on, they post in correct orientation.

    This may not be the most up to date site, but neither are our boats and neither am I. I would suggest taking your complaints to Sams via a call or email as opposed to open posting. All I can say is Sam's has got to be the most patient and forgiving folks ever for what I've seen posted over the years (not singling anyone out). And I really appreciate them!

    Complaints about the site are meant for this section, why keep them a secret so Sam's knows the extent of the dysfunction. No need to judge my intention or demeanor
