Thanks, Blue eyes, that does work and I can now see the pictures much better.

Actually that is what I have even doing, I did not know there was an app for this. Apps are usually made so you can upload photos directly from your device's photo albums (since you can't browse for a file in the same way a normal website would ask you to). Perhaps I should look into it.

And of course it's not free. T_T

Did you see my post with the step by step instructions for uploading from Safari? I don't have the app either.

For whatever reason sometimes I do have to go through those same steps a couple of times before it actually works, other times no problem at all. I don't know what the glitch is.

Fun on the patio!

I uploaded this via iPhone (from Safari browser) using the following steps:

1. From within a new post select "Go Advanced"
2. Click the paper clip icon. New page should open.
3. Under "Upload file from your computer" click "Choose file", then "Choose existing"
4. Select the photo you want to upload, tap it and you will be taken back to the previous screen.
5. Click the "Upload" button (find this by scrolling over to the right side of the screen)
6. Once uploaded a box below the "Upload" area will now show "Current attachments"
7. Do not close this page, just go back to the page where you had started your post (it should still be open - use the page icon bottom RH of the phone screen to get back to previous page).
8. Within your post, again click on the paper clip icon - a drop down "Manage attachments" should appear with your photo as an attachment. Tap the photo and it should upload.

To make sure it has worked, tap Preview Post prior to submitting.

I've also only been able to upload 1 photo per post although the upload page makes it appear you can do 2 at a time.

Hope this helps!

In the manage attachments page I have two buttons in the upload from computer box and both say "choose file". Both boxes are faded out. I would upload a screenshot to show you but...well I can't.

As the rainy season (about June through September) has recently set in, I was able to take this photo of storm clouds over Lake Chapala from the lake shore park in Ajijic (with my iPhone 5S on June 25th at 8:44 P.M.)

Here are a few that I took of the area where we will be living

San Miguel de Allende, earlier this evening ... as the celebrations of the city/town's patron saint continue:

San Miguel de Allende and nearby Atotonilco both share UNESCO World Heritage designation. Atotonilco is home to El Santuario de Jesús Nazareno which is often referred to as "Mexico's Sistine Chapel."

The banner containing the image of the Virgen de Guadalupe which Miguel Hidalgo carried as he called for the independence of Mexico came from this church.

Whenever I'm in SMA I make a pilgrimage to the Santuario, and I did that today.
