Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos

Anyone else out there find this to be the most difficult site to add a photo to your personal page? I made all of my photos 640 x 480, less than 125kb. I click "Online" on my personal page, go to "Upload Images" then browse for a photo (there is no link "Choose File" as per directions). When Iselect the file through the browse function, then I click "Upload Photo" and then look for the button on the right about inserting brackets. There is no such button. Anyone have an idea how the process may have changed compared to the directions?
Thanks.

Your photos are not uploading properly so something is wrong with them or the name.
You should get a message on whether the photos were uploaded or an error if they don't.
What error are you seeing?

Check the personal page tutorials.

Joe -

I've tried every which way. I don't see any obvious errors. I've tried "Offline" and "online" and whenever I get to browse, enter the image and hit the "Upload Image" then nothing happens. No buttons or links as the directions indicate.
Do you know if there is any site administrator that could answer?

You could ask any of the site admins......

If you are not seeing the "Image Uploaded" as shown in this photo below, then something is wrong and you should see an error of some sort.

I might also suggest that you just give us a link to your photobucket or other outside source that you already have photos uploaded to.
Not everyone needs a personal page if they already have photos uploaded somewhere else on the Internet.

We have 930 members with personal pages.

We have 238 members with personal website links like this.

Either one of the above works for everyone.
Personal Pages are available for those that don't have an outside source.

What were you trying to upload from?
A mobile device?
If so, that probably won't work unless it was an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad and using Safari... I haven't even tried that one yet but should work.
I will put that on my list of things to try.

I am a Mac man.....
I don't face, tweet, or do windows...... :)

EDIT:
I just tried to upload photos from my iPod Touch 4th generation with camera using Safari and nothing shows up even though I have photos on the camera.
So, can't do it from a mobile device that I am aware of at this time.

No, I was trying from Gateway desktop with Windows Vista OS. I have no expectation that is a problem, but sometimes Windows puts in blockers etc. So I might try the MAC in a bit.

I posted photos to a page listed on my personal page also:
https://s3.amazonaws.com/ArtZito/whalerhome.htm

See if you can access it.
Thanks.

NO, we can't do that.
The personal page section must have photos... No exceptions...

Your amazon personal website works just fine...

Thanks for you cooperation.

I put the link to your personal website in your profile for you. Now it shows up under your name on the left just like the personal pages or the personal websites that members have.

if someone can direct me how to get the photos there then I have a portfolio.

Also, if anyone knows whether they sell these teak covers as a part or kit, or knows the best place to get this wood, please let me know.
