    Photo insertion tool

    Has any thought been given to updating the tools/process required to insert pictures into postings? It seems very cumbersome and I suspect gives some who are technically challenged some fits. I'm good w tech and it seems like a PIA to me. Maybe it has to do w mobile vs desktop? When I post to Pelican and other sites I visit, I think it is easier. Just my 1.5 cents.

    What am I missing? What is so hard about uploading a photo?

    Yes doable, but awkward and cumbersome process compared to latest upload standards available. Try Pelicans for an idea. Just was asking if we were looking towards the future ��

    I actually find the Pelican process less intuitive if anything.

    If we're talking about site improvements, what we really need is a better mobile experience. Something like Tapatalk is such an easy and obvious upgrade when the majority of online traffic is now mobile. I understand that the average age around here is about 100 (well, maybe 99 if you count Beck) but I can promise you that mobile traffic even around here is significant and growing.

    I have not played with Tapatalk. I will have to give it a try. The upload of pics I was referring to was from my desktop. No sure how Pelicans is on mobile.
