    welcome to the E32 forum. Built threads/progress threads are always interesting for us. Just post it here in the E32 forum. In case you need help, let us know.
    Add the exact model and built year/month to your profile, easier for us to help you.

    I posted a thread but it isn’t showing up
    Maybe it’s becuase my pictures didn’t work
    I done a search on how to upload pics but can’t find anything useful
    Could you tell me or give me a link?
    Thanks

    Now the new thread is there. Just be patient, till you have 10 posts, all the newbie posts have to be manually approved by a moderator, that is the spam-o-matic.
    For picture you can first test in the test forum or try to amend the non working pic, I will also try.
    Test forum https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/f...hp?123-Testing
    Once you have downloaded it on the forum server, you can always pull these pics for new posts from your folder, for that you have to go to advanced settings

    I uploaded them onto Flicker and put the link in for now
    I’d prefer them showing as photos in the thread though
    But I’ll sort it out when I get home to the laptop. It’s a nightmare on my phone haha

    yes, better on the laptop than on the phone. Some tips, (use the test forum first), assuming you want to answer in a thread, do NOT use on right bottom the Post Quick Reply, but instead of that click on Go Advanced, then a new window openns and you have more options, for example you see
    Additional Options
    show your signature
    automatically parse links in text (Will turn www.example.com into http://www.example.com.)
    disable smilies

    manage attachments
    Valid file extensions: doc gif jpe jpeg jpg pdf png psd txt zip

    there you can add the pics or files and you can also check before if they work or not, on the right bottom is preview post and/or submit reply

    I will do that when I get home to my laptop. Using my phone seems to be very limited
