Disappearing pics

On a couple occasions, I have re-visited a thread where I had posted pics, only to find that they are now gone.
The attachment ID's are still there, but no pics.
Most recently this morning on the ' Show your daily user ' thread.
Have noticed on other member picture posts also, that the attachment is sometimes just numbers in a box, but no pics.
Maybe it's just my weak service :?:

Same as I always do Jim. Full editor preview, attachments, add files, choose then place in line.
I remember when I did it and the pics were there. Been a while since I revisited the thread. Only went there this morning because Moe had posted. That's when I noticed it....

I have had some trouble posting pic lately. Have reduced the size to make them acceptable but last time it wouldn't take them anyway.

I partially blamed my internet server as it has been slower since the shutdown, guessed the increased traffic, but I have also given up a couple times just because I was frustrated.

try looking below ... clicking on Attachments ... click on add files .... the first picture you upload will be at the bottom of those posted ... let the software take care of the order of the pictures ... my pure hunch is manually "choose then place in line " might be the issue

Thanks Jim!
Will experiment and move a bit slower next time I go to post a pic. I have however posted successfully many times.
I'm starting to think it might have something to do wih my wifi strength, as I run off of an extender from Carol next door.
