Pix only show when logged in?
« on: May 14, 2014, 09:12:52 AM »
My apologies if this is in the wrong section. 

I have a post in the Marketplace.  The pix only show when I'm logged in, and non registered folks and those not logged in can't see them.

Did I post them incorrectly or am I doing something else wrong?

Thanks for the help!

That seems to be the case for me.  People post pics of new guitars, but I don't see the pics until I log in.

if pictures are posted as an attachment and uploaded to the forum, rather than linking
them from a host such as photobucket, they are only viewable when a member is logged in -
providing a direct link [img] to pictures hosted on another site will make
them appear without having to login in & actively click on the thumbnails
it's not about what you play,
it's all about why you play ...

This is good info as I didn't realize people couldn't see attachments unless logged in as a member. Bernie, do you have a Photobucket account, or can you make one? Then you could edit your post in the Marketplace and hyperlink the photos so they display to all non-members.
