Why can't I upload images?

I am a paying member so why when I want to start a new topic am I not offered a chance to upload images?

I have that problem all the time. if I click on "Preview" and this hit my back browser button several times, the "Choose a File" option usually appears. It's aggravating.

Why are you hitting your browser's "Back" button at all, let alone multiple times?

I write my comments in the "Your message" area but the "Choose a File" button is not below it. If I click on "Preview" and then hit the back browser button (taking me back to my input page), the "Choose a File" button will sometimes be there. Other times, I have to go back and forth from my original input page to the Preview page and back several times before the "Choose a File" button appears and I can upload an image. It is really aggravating.

I have never heard of this being a problem. You should contact an Admin, and see if they can help you out.

Here is what is found below my "Your message:" box - every time...


You may upload up to 5 images. Press CTRL to select more than one image file.

Choose a File (a button)

I have sent a note to Terry about this thread.

When it first started to happen (last year?), I did notify the administrator. After some time, it began to occur less and less. For the last few weeks, it has been happening more often.

Here's a screenshot of what I am getting (not every time, but way too often). I posted this back in August, when the problem began. Thank you, growin -- I know the issue really doesn't belong on this thread.

I do recall this issue, but I don't recall the specifics of which browser you're using and if you've tried another browser. As far as I know, we can't replicate the problem, which means it's probably something in your browser settings.

Thanks, Terry, for your response. The only problem is that it works fine sometimes and acts up at other times. I am using Google Chrome all of the time. This afternoon, when the discussion came up, I could not get it to act up even once -- worked like a charm. Here's a screenshot of what I'm getting right now (had to do the back-and-forth thing to get the "Choose a File" button to appear so I could upload it....).
