Picture added to conversation?

[pmanton]

How do I add a photo that's on my computer to a conversation?
The only option that I see asks for a URL. I have no "upload a file" option below the pane that is present in a normal post.
Thanks

Do it in a private conversation, which is what I believe the op is asking.

I can do that but sometimes i get an incorrect file extension rejection notice. Usually I get that if it's not a jpeg image. Others times it will refuse it if the file is too large.

My mistake, I thought conversation = thread.

Disregard.

Ouch! Like Charlie Golf ... I've not tried this in "conversation mode" ... Sorry about that chief!

You’re correct, the feature is disabled for conversations.
(Different than threads)
You can only specify links to stuff hosted outside of PoA.

Just post it in the original thread. A photo of an airplane, I presume.

Why is that? There have been times where that feature would have been useful.

With a little imagination, you can also think of ways it could be abused, with serious legal ramifications for both the user and the site.
