Having problems again with up loading photos, a change in the upload button doesn't appear to be useful.

Comes up with "No file selected" GRRRRR!
Go team SpaceX, go.
The only way to succeed is to try.
If at first you don't succeed, why then
you must try, try again.

Where you see the box that says "Drag and drop a photo here to upload...", there's another way to do it.

An easy trick I found that works is to copy the photo to your clipboard (usually Ctrl-C) and then target that box and paste using Ctrl-V. That's very handy when showing a photo from another site, but it also works on photos from your own PC as well. Sometimes it says "unable to upload...", but check the post with the Preview button, it's always there for me.

Did that copied the photo from the Image Viewer program and tried to drop it here, it resulted in the file message

Then the lightbox came in.

Will try it in the thread, thanks.

Did try it but no joy. Noticed in both cases for the thread and this, when the cursor is placed on Preview and Finished, the yellow bacground appears and is steady, however for the upload there is only a flicker.

Just have put up with it, no doubt a fix will be found.

Cheers

My guess is then it has to be a browser issue, sometimes ad-blockers cause erratic behavior like that. But it obviously worked on the above post here.

Maybe posting what OS and browser you're using and someone could help you out further.
