Can't seem to attach pis in my posts. It used to work, but the last week or two, I go to browse, find the file, open it, and it appears in the browse box, but when I go to preview the post, there's no picture in the post. Does it have something to do with the fact that we're running linux?-- we were before, but maybe something's changed here?

I don't think you can attach a picture and then "preview" it - you need to actually "submit reply" before it gets attached.

Here's mine - I tried to attach it and then "preview reply" and nothing happened... I had to "submit reply" and then it worked.

okay, but i've done that and nothing's shown in the actual message. I'll keep trying-- sure
I'll have a forehead slapping DOH! moment when I figure it out. LOL

another thought - if you preview the reply before posting, it also seems to lose the browsed-for-file - you have to re-browse for it. I don't know if that's what you tried or not. If you figure it out, let me know? and even if you don't, could you make a precise list of what steps you took, so I can try to figure it out? Thanks!

Yup, that was the problem--I was previewing and then not rebrowsing. Thanks for figuring it out. My dh is a computer geek and it had him stumped too. He got so frustrated he put my sns pics on his server so he wouldn't have to keep messing with it. lol!
