New to BGE but have been stalking this group for about a month.  I am trying to post my first cook with pictures and the pictures seem to be loading out of order and some within the text of my post .  Is there a way to reorder or do i just need to delete an load one picture at a time??

Thanks so much.... Love this forum.

    If you do more than one photo at a time the forum will display them in a random order.  Sometimes I do one at a time, sometimes I just say screw it, people here will figure out what is going on in each shot.

    I load my last picture first and the picture I want to be seen on the post first last, if that makes sense. Then fill in the text after all pics loaded.

    Right now, it seems that I can cut and paste the pictures to the locations I want.  Not sure what it will display like in forum.  Maybe preview will show it.  Will let you know.

    Thanks

    I figured it out.  Not a great way but had to cut and paste in the order I wanted the pictures.  They also load at the cursor location.

    There is an easier way.

    1) Enter your text then insert all the photos in a new line.

    2) delete all the photos loaded out of the comment box

    3) below your comment window there are boxes with the photos you loaded 

    4) click on the box you want to insert and it will add the photo

    5) type more text then do the same for the next photo

    I write paragraphs first, then come back and insert pictures to what correspond to what I'm talking about.

    Had a difficult time at first, once I figured out the game ... I mastered it.

    That happens at random times.  If you post a pic then hit enter/return a couple of times, then move the cursor back to the top for the next pic you can control the order just like pasting into a Word document.

    I think, after doing it a couple of times, you can't load all the pictures at once.  Some load faster than others and some fail to load.  The secret from now on is to load one picture at a time, from the location you want it to be placed.  First round was a learning experience.  I think I got it now.......  Thanks to all

    What works the easiest for me is to put them in one by one, in the order I choose.  It's important to click on the little icon of a file in the toolbar above the box where you type in the text:


    I just click on that and drag the file into the text wherever I want it.  Works like a charm.
