Right under where you type in your message is three buttons "Save Draft", "Preview", and "Submit" exactly like it is to post.

But the real secret is......I just changed the setting to allow PM for "newly registered" members. We are all new, so I turned off the restriction. Now it should be OK.

Ask Millamn. Look at his photos. They are huge!

Could be they are not just large, but too high of resolution.

I'll try to work on this today and see what is going on.

I downsize all of my pics using Paint that I believe everybody running windows has. I downsized the ones posted here to just under the max size. The size limit here is on file size (mb) not frame size YxZ.
“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

C. S. Lewis
