I'm having trouble posting pics and was wondering how other Mac people do it. I go to the gallery-pick my picture-scroll down to find the copy to clipboard box-it's not there. Any advice would be appreciated!!!:confused:

yes - I had that same problem
after many frustrating hours (crying, stomping, door banging, desperate pms to Boots, begging others to post my pics, shrinking and disappearing pics, etc), this is what I came up with:
I upload my pics to flickr (or any web-based photo service), then I copy the pic at whatever size I want it to show up - the picture though, not the link (highlight the pic, copy) - and then I paste it in the post
it works really well for posting, but I have no pictures in the gallery

I understand all the frustration!!! I'm so glad it wasn't just me. I thought why Can't I do this. I will try your advice next time I want to share a picture.
Thanks Rhea

Have you tried using Firefox ? Safari is trash based on trash code. Standards compliant POS if you ask me.

I actually used"copy image", and it didn't work. It won't allow me to drag and drop. It will change it to text.

Can you upload to photobucket or something similar. I know photobucket lists the image code under the picture and then you can copy the image code and insert it when directed to by the forum software, just remove the [img] tags.

That happened to me - the link text appearing [from where the picture was in the gallery] - but then when it posted it was the picture and not the text! I couldn't believe it!
