And now I have just realised there is no option to insert a picture. Perhaps you would like to remove this this post comma unless somebody could tell me how to to insert a photo. New paragraph thank you

Hi OP

You need to have been a user for 48 hours prior to posting pictures.
Can you email us the screenshot to [email protected]? We'll get this looked into for you!

What screenreader are you using OP?

Often the mobile site works better than the full site even on a pc.

Am using the mobile site on my phone with voiceover without many issues. But as MN said above, you need to have been a user fOr 48 hours to post an image so that’s not an accessibility thing.

Thank you for the file upload information. I made a new account 2 nights ago for a very specific outing post that I didn't want linking to my long-standing account. Thank you, sorry to have disturbed uoi for a seemingly small problem.

I have emailed the screenshot. Thank you.

Thank you for taking time to help me, I was getting mad with myself because I couldn't work it out.

I (re)joined MN 2 nights ago, so the file issue is explained by that.

I use JAWS on my work & and personal desktop PCs and laptop and it works in tandem with ARIA, so.it should cope OK with an error message. I don't do much website or forums on my mobile as I find it overwhelming on a smaller screen.

I really appreciate that you have taken time to help me. I'm reasobably proficient with JAWS, but still a lot to learn.
