Adding documents to the Forum
« on: July 24, 2011, 07:34:20 AM »
You can add documents to the Forum, in the following formats: .doc, .pdf, .txt and .zip. The file must be within our size limit of 250KB. You can add more than one file of that size in the same message (up to ten, in fact), but it will usually make it easiest for people to find the file they want if you keep to just one per post.
This is how to do it:
When you have written your text, click on [/i]Additional Options[/i] (at the bottom, on the left). A new Attach box will open. Click on the blue Browse button on the right, to open a box showing the folders on your computer. Navigate through these just as you would to find any file, and when you have found the file you want click on it. The name of the file will then show in the box. Then click on the Open button, which will load that file.
