Hi Paul

Should be fine on iPad. I'm inserting image below on an iPad. When you click the insert image icon, choose 'from computer' tab, then click 'choose file', then choose the source such as the iPad photo library, dropbox, iCloud Drive, etc, chose the photo, then 'upload files' which will store the image on the forums server as an attachment, and then paste the BB code with the '[ATTACH]' tags into your post like this example.

This is different to linking an image stored on an external web server using the '' BB tags with a URL you supply.

Hi Noel & thanks, I'm doing just that but I'm trying to send a pm with a photo, but the system's only asking for a url,

Ah now that's an entirely different matter You cannot attach an image to a PM, you can only insert a link to a URL.

Well that solves it, thanks for that,
