Thank you Edmondo. I am sure the members of this forum will be very pleased as they try to attach documents they are talking about.

I was going to say, "Kewl!" and attach a test image... but I am confused -

I don't see an option to upload an image directly to the forum, therefore what exactly has changed? It appears that one must still upload image files to a third-party host site and then reference the image by its http... address after clicking the Insert Image icon above the new message text box.

Nope; the entire "Add an Attachment" section is missing from my screen. It's not there for a "New Post", either.

Is this a permissions issue perhaps?

I checked the persmissions and according me they are o.k.
Maybe another member can confirm if it is working yes or no.

Actually, it seems to be missing only in this board. I just noticed that it ("Add an Attachment") is there in other boards such as "Italian Genealogy" and "Locations in Italy".

I checked the user permission, not the forum permissions :oops:
It should work also here now.

Yep, that seems to have fixed it.

Now I can show you my favorite dog, Scooby, who died from cancer two years ago.

Edmondo - a minor detail perhaps, but if you click the "Allowed Extensions and Sizes" link just above the Filename inpuit box, it indicates "Images -> Maximum Upload Size: Unlimited" however when trying to upload a large image, you get an error message saying maximum size is 256kb.
