Dame_Ann_Average posted:Still can't post animations from Chrome, posting a picture takes ages, the collapse box doesn't come up immediately and then you have to repost it.
I'm not sure I understand what's happening for you. Can you give me an example of an animation you are trying to post, and tell me how you are trying to post a picture?
Hi Lori. I'm not having as many problems. Just the posting images (not doable in here. I have to go to IE) and the double spacing for me which makes it awful when we quote posts as we feel we need to because you lose the conversation.
I've just tried to post an image....Google images (robin redbreast) and right click and copied it. I right clicked and pasted it into this reply box and hit post reply. I get a quick look at the image then it disappears and I get the message.....You are not allowed to upload files. Windows 8.1 and Chrome on a laptop, but I know others are on Windows 7

Lori posted:Hi, Ros: There is no going back, I'm afraid...
I use a laptop/desktop regularly, and don't see any issue, but I suppose it's a mix between personal preference and personal setup (the way your computer is set up compared to mine, I mean).
We are constantly working on Hoop.la and implementing new features/suggestions/changes, so I hope we can get to something that is easier for all of you!
thanks for the reply

Dame, I notice that with your first giraffe picture it is included as an attachment so is coming from your saved picture on your computer but with the second one which is animated as a picture direct from the web. I don't use Chrome but I'm wondering why it has been done as an attachment rather than the direct web to add reply box. I think that's why it's not animated.

Because on chrome we are getting collapse attachment box and it includes it in the post, that doesn't happen in IE, it just automatically pastes. I'm using windows 7.
I'm not attaching it, the post box is El
Dame, that must be caused by you being a VIP as otherwise it couldn't get attached. Chrome, being cloud based, must be treating the picture you copied as if it was stored on your device. Rather than pasting the picture direct in the Add Reply box, are you able to use the insert/edit image icon and paste the image address in the Source box in Chrome? If you are able to then that might get an animated picture rather than a still.

I've tried that El Loro and that doesn't work either , it never happened before the update
My VIP doesn't seem to be affecting IE when I log into that El, it works perfectly and I also get the collapse message in chrome trying to post a picture. I don't like or us IE, I just tried it to see if it worked
Thanks El
Hi, all: Just wanted you to know that I tested all the browsers and submitted a bug on the gif-that-isn't-a-gif-in-chrome today. Sorry it took me so long--the testing takes time, which is at a premium at the moment. 
Just so you know, it works in all browsers except Chrome, so you can use any other browser (Firefox, for instance, which I like better than IE, and it's my alternate testing browser).

Sprout, is this happening for ALL images, or just gifs?
Never mind. I just verified that it's for all images. 
Reported!
I'm sorry lori.I really don't like the new forum layout...

No need to be sorry...I'm sorry you don't like it. It's unlikely to change much, beyond the little tweaks that I'm doing and bugs that have been reported.

Thank you very much Lori 
Hiya x.......I'm unable to post smileys on the latest version of IOS on my iPad.....The box just collapses when I click on it and if it does manage to stay up I press the required smiley and nothing happens. This may be just me, because Baz was able to post them last night, but just thought I'd mention it (laptop is ok)

thanks Lori for looking into it for us... and it's all images for me on chrome.
Kaytee, are you using the URL, or one of the other codes? The URL is the only one that works here.

Kaytee, Chrome is the only browser that is a problem, as near as I can tell. If you use Firefox or IE or Safari, you should be ok.

I hope Kaytee understands this, cuz I don't.

Yeah a bit cryptic, now I think of it. Depends what she was trying to post and from where.
*waits for Kaytee*
Might be a lengthy wait, she's in the CBB thread.
