Can someone tell me why I cannot insert photos into a diary
Danielle Davis (ocleverone) (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 9:21PM EST (link)When I try to insert a photo in a diary, it says I do not have permission.
To me, “consensus” seems to be the process of abandoning all beliefs, principles, values and policies.

I regard them as Quislings, as traitors … I mean it. — Margaret Thatcher
replying to your (?)...
DONTREADONME (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 9:44PM EST (link)I have no idea when they are going to call us down for a meeting on the LCCE and AoA that I am working on. Things have just gotten real quiet from over ACPROG, I just got an LCCE and my word the expenses are astronomic. Anyway, you may know what I just said since you are down a QCC. So which one of those Defense companies you work for down there?
Are you having problems with inserting pictures in your diary, what is the nature of the problem?
I do indeed speak acronymese and 5000 series.

You must be part of SYSCOM.
Let me know when you are heading down this way. (We can go laugh at the remaining McAuliffe signs on the road.)
About the picture. Any time I try to insert a picture, it says I do not have permission to do so.

DONTREADONME (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 10:25PM EST (link)SYSCOM it is by I am in PG-13 PM ONS and not under ACProg side though I have to wait for them to conduct all of those 5000.02 series processes.
I think I was on the top floor once a number of months ago, if I have this right they have all of you put into a number of cubicles in there. That sucks. I could be wrong all I remember was walking in and all of these windows along the front of the building with everyone piled into what looks like a giant bullpen. I could have that wrong I can not remember what that meeting was for.
Are you trying to upload a picture or are you trying insert a picture through linking to the object?
Yep, that would be my office - cubeville.
Danielle Davis (ocleverone) (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 10:37PM EST (link)Not to be confused with cube town, which is on the other side of the building.
I was trying to upload but I think that bs probably had the answer.

How about this...
DONTREADONME (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 10:36PM EST (link)MCOTEA, if that name rings a bell then I have been to your office.
OK here is my suggestion to your uploading of pictures to your diary or comments. My understanding is that we can only link pictures to be inserted into our diaries and we are not allowed to upload pictures to keep server space free for the site. Now if you have comcast.net or cox.net you can make your own webpage and upload your pictures to that page and link to them to insert in your diary or comment.
Inserting Photos
Skanderbeg (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 10:48PM EST (link)That seems to be the case – contributing editors can upload photos to the site server but no one else can.
Best suggestion in the absence of anything else is to upload/move photos to someplace like flickr (free) and then use a link to the image there.
The html to use is:
Where the path in quotes is the path to the photo file. The “width=480″ is optional, but it scales a photo’s width to be perfect for **non-indented** stuff like diaries and first-rank comments. Height automatically scales in the same proportion when not specified.
Grumble
Skanderbeg (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 10:49PM EST (link)Well, the html didn’t appear because it tried to use it.
Ergo, let me try this.
&img src=”http://www.flickr.com/blah/blah/blah.jpg” width=480&
where to use it just replace the & and & with to make it work.
Sigh
Skanderbeg (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 10:50PM EST (link)I hate computers
One last detail to get right for you.
Replace “&” and “&” with “”
Crimus
Skanderbeg (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 10:51PM EST (link)Replace the & at the beginning with the less-than symbol and the & a the end with the greater-than symbol. Easy, no?
skander thanks for the example (snark off)-nt
DONTREADONME (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 10:56PM EST (link)Lol
TNJim (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 11:04PM EST (link)Darn that html and trying to type in less-than and greater than symbols. Same thing happened to Erick Brockway last night when he tried to demo the same thing to someone else last night
I think commenters have to post graphics elsewhere
Bill S (Diary) Thursday, June 18th at 10:08PM EST (link)and use img tags to refer to the images remotely. Neil would need to verify.
