    How I Post Pictures

    You may do it differently but this is my method, in the Apple world. Also there is a short wait for some steps to happen.

    Send pic from my iPhone to my email

    On Mac open the email and right click on the pic

    'Save Attachment'

    Select a folder in 'Finder' 'Documents', give it a useful name and 'Save'

    At this point it may be appropriate to modify the image

    In Sawmill Creek open a new message and put the cursor where the image is wanted

    Select the 'Insert Image' icon, fifth from right in the middle row

    Click on 'From Computer' select 'Choose File' this opens Finder

    Go to 'Documents' and select the file

    Select 'Upload File'

    Done

    Seems like a lot of steps...... I connect my phone to the computer and drag over the picture I want to the desktop then write my post on SMC and insert the picture...

    How do you connect?

    Do you use my last 5 steps to insert, or is there a shorter way?

    I just use a usb-c cable to connect the phone to the pc. I can then see all the files and folders that are on the phone (if I try that with my wife's iphone I can't see any files so you have to go through other steps like icloud to get the file you want)..that's why I don't like iphones... Once I drag the picture from the phone to my pc desktop it is ready to insert into a SMC post. I make my post and select "go advanced" then "manage attachments" and "add files" and select the picture from the desktop to insert into the post.

    so it's just...
    1. Put picture from phone to desktop
    2. Compose post in SMC
    3. Add picture from desktop and insert into post
