I have been a Jeep enthusiast for the past 40 years ! It all started when I purchased my 1981 Jeep CJ5 Renegade as a young Airmen at Luke AFB AZ. and I have been buying Jeeps ever since! Upon my retirement from the US Air Force I was in need of something to keep myself busy in retirement and to wrench /tinker on. So being interested in Jeeps and military history it was only natural that I get myself a military Jeep. The Jeep that I have decided on was a Air Force Strata Blue M38A1 that would reflect my branch of service. I am hoping to gain knowledge and insight from all here in this forum. 🇺🇸😃

Welcome JeeperCreepers! An Air Force M38A1 would be very nice. The Air Force theme looked great.

Take the photo with a camera, phone or whatever.

Working from a computer is easiest. Download the photo to your computer.

When you post a message, go down to the bottom of the box and click "Go Advanced"

A different box will open - it wil ask you for a title - just make one that suits you.

Roll down the page and look for "Manage Attachments"; click it.

Go to your computer and choose the file you want to upload.

Once you choose a file, click "Upload"

Once it uploads, you will get a window "List of current attachments".

Now, you can upload more or close the "Go Advanced" window. There is a limit of five attachments for a single post.

Thanks for the info.....but isn't there a easier way like copy and paste?

I see people who manage to just embed photos in their message, but my web browser - or something- has a problem with that approach in that if you click on a photo like that, it uses the photo viewing app on your computer to show the attachment.

When it does that, I get logged out of the Forum and have to start over.

But - your experience may be different.

But - you have a very nice AF Blue vehicle. Is it still 24-volt or has it had the 12-volt conversion?

See if this helps on the photos. Let me know if you still have trouble. Unfortunately there isn't an easier way I know of.
