    I expect with our Europa League match a lot of people will be uploading photos. Is it really as hard as I seem to think it is? You have to say you are going to attach a file, go to a different link, then go to an attachment box to select from a list of images. The advice on the site seems to have been superseded by changes to the site. I've managed to do it but I'm sure it should be a lot easier - something like selecting an image icon and browsing to the image and selecting it.

    I've come up with this:

    Reply to Thread
    Go Advanced
    Attachments
    Choose File
    Upload
    Close this window
    Attachments down arrow
    select attachment

    It seems long winded to me!

    You can do it a lot quicker and make it look better on the page, but it requires opening an extra tab on another site:

    Open a site such as imgur.com
    Choose upload from computer (also works from web if you wanted to post something from Google for example)
    Browse to the image
    Click upload
    It gives you several codes, the one you want is BB Code.
    Copy and paste the BB code into a not606 post and it renders perfectly, full size.

    It feels like I'm already in Zilina now. Thanks Peter.

    There is a certain Eastern European quality to the image.

    Sorry, I don't understand cockney rhyming slang - I've only been here 41 years!
