As I have kind offers of trying to edit the posts to add in the photos I thought the way to go would be for me to find the photos and host them in the CWDF gallery but when I click on "gallery" there are no photos there! How do I host them on CWDF? I had a look on your Facebook page but can't work out which one relates to what. If you can help me with that I can help fix your original post. As regards to uploading photos on CWDF, when you go to compose/write a new post you will see an option to attach photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, no it won't be straightforward to locate which photo goes where. In the mean time it seems like I need to create a new thread just to host the photos. It's seems like it is a lot of work, not just for me but for you mods and I am unsre I want to put you to all that trouble, I will have another look tomottow when I might be in a better frame of mind to get it done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are member of multiple forums, it will be tedious to upload to them all. Edited August 16, 2020 by restlessnomad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DHutch Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 If you can find the photos, and which posts they go with, then we can replace the FB linked images with ones uploaded directly into the post. Canalworld aim to host images at a good resolution, indefinitely, for free. Something which is not universally done, but makes the forum a much nice place to use and browser, as well as hopefully maintaining the content long term should someone wish to view it later.

Would it not be better to use a more conventional picture hosting site rather than social media? Not only do I never visit farcebook, as a dinosaur I still take any fotos of any importance with a proper camera with a proper film in it. There is always a proper copy and if not the negatives last for years and years. Using proper cameras with proper films means instead of taking thousands of never to be seen again digital stuff I am careful about useage and keep all of them. In 20 years time with all this fone foto stuff most people simply will not have any fotos, I love looking back at the 100 year old proper ones I have of famiy.

cheshire~rose Posted August 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) I had not forgotten I needed to get on with trying to deal with the photo conundrum but have been busy doing other stuff but I am going to see if I can get it up to date this week. If there is a kindly admin who has a little time on his hands to dump the photos on the gaps I would very much appreciate it, Once it is all up to date this thread can then be deleted so I am not taking up too much space on the forum with my rubbish I figure if I spam this thread with the photos and try and add the sequence of numbers that appears where each one is missing from then hopefully it will tally up for whoever is doing it? I am going to post the very first one to test how it works and, if I don't get distracted I will follow with more Edit to add the file name because I am unsure if it is visible 82781124_102293641326171_679360654670299 Edited August 29, 2020 by cheshire~rose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheshire~rose Posted August 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) Three more photos which fill the gaps up to post 14 89573277_10157905461414070_5202095020621 89810788_10157905911689070_1732129249273 89912706_10157906569404070_8671110032240 Unfortunately the images seem to have uploaded in the reverse order that they need to appear in the other thread - sorry! this is getting complicated!
