I got the same thing the other day, sun, when I tried to post the soup picture.  I was doing it from my cell phone.  I later went on to my Mac desktop and found the pic in (Google) Photos+ and was able to post it.

Okay, it's working on my end.

One thing I have noticed is that when I try to copy and paste the contents of an article, I get a "message body left empty" and lose everything...but I can post a link, go back and use the edit button and add copied lines...strange.

Maybe your personal settings got whacked by your security updates or something?

emily: Mac desktop and found the pic in (Google) Photos+ and was able to post it.


I'm on a desktop MAC . I click on choose file and then add attachment and it immediately says forgettaboutit. The icon won't work when I used it with a photobucket photo. Normally, I upload them directly from my computer files....nothing is working.

I think it was Jim who told me to download Notepad and paste anything I had copied there, such as articles, etc. and then copy it from Notepad and paste it on the Board.  It has worked for me every time.  I now preview any article or even a link I am pasting and 9 times out of 10, I get the error message that It's empty.  Maybe it has something to do with copyright.

Sun, try saving your pic from photo bucket to your desktop first and re-naming it and then posting it.

Yes the notepad or turning off the wysiwyg mode.....(http://www.aesopsretreat.com/forum/Smileys/classic/tongue.gif) Really dig the experts who were/are so good at posting articles.


The attach choose file I avoid as can't see it in preview or if I'm posting about it and want to see it while posting which i can't.


I'll try what I usually do, upload your own photo from the up arrow/ paper clip icon.
Will post one of my favorite looks at the Grammys tonight.

My boys Metallica got the forgetful dis from an apparent idiot 'laverne cox' who was suppose to announce Metallica and Gaga performing --------but instead made some dumb political statement then only mentioned Gaga performing...actually said something like 6 or 8 time grammy nom then however many Gaga has had----then only mentioned Gaga on stage. Then!to add insult James' mic malfunctioned.
But they were still gud

I hate it when these entertainers get political and all you want to do is enjoy the show.  The Oscars will probably be even worse.  I started off watching the Grammys and then my daughter called and we had so much to discuss that I missed over an hour of the show and I feel like I have a rash on my ear!  I'm glad I recorded it and will watch the rest later.  I was watching Adele when my daughter called - did she mess up her song?  I'll have to check that out.

Oh boy, Adele.(http://www.aesopsretreat.com/forum/Smileys/classic/tongue.gif) Yep messed up her tribute to George Michael then insisted on a do over! And cussed filled her insistence to start again then 'apologized' for swearing. While other winners got their mic cut if they talked too long or the dreaded drowned out in musac.

Hey Pacifica - I just tried to post a picture tonight in a new topic - no different from any other pics that I have posted on the Attach: Choose File Mode, but I got the error message.  So much for my advice! LOL.  I tried again by turning off the WYSIWYG mode - still didn't work.  Where is the paper clip icon?  I have the pic downloaded on my desktop.

I don't know why but Demi Love to annoys me.  Maybe it's from way back when she was on a judging panel and used to argue with and interrupt Simon Cowell.  Was it The X Factor or AI?

I just saw Demi Lovato's dress and she said it was completely see through.  No underwear!  She was being interviewed with her Dad and he was asked if he thought it was ok.  He hesitated before he said "Yes".  (http://www.aesopsretreat.com/forum/Smileys/classic/rolleyes.gif)

Thanks Pacifica for the tip on posting with the paper clip - I see it now and never paid any attention to it before.  I'll try it.
