Boats Sully Posted August 28, 2021 Share #1 Posted August 28, 2021 I am having a problem with posting pictures to my build blog. I tried everything I can think of, which is not a lot when it comes to computers. I use a Mac lap top. Any help would be much appreciated Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsdpic Posted August 28, 2021 Share #2 Posted August 28, 2021 (edited) Hi Chris. I noticed that on your build log. It looks like you uploaded HEIC files (High Efficiency Image Container). Apparently the MSW forum software does not support/recognize that file type. You might google "HEIC file" to look for the best way to convert to a more standard format like JPEG to use when uploading files. If you took them with an iPhone originally, you can got to settings->camera->formats and select "most compatible" and that should use JPEG for all images from that point on (which may or may not be what you really want). There are probably apps on MAC OS to do the conversion as well. I am not associated with MSW, just another user. Perhaps someone associated with MSW will chime in with more info about picture file formats, or any easy way to convert.

mtaylor Posted August 29, 2021 Share #3 Posted August 29, 2021 Gary is right. Convert them to JPG format. HEIC is a Microsoft format and not used much on the Internet.

James H Posted August 29, 2021 Share #4 Posted August 29, 2021 That's right. We don't support HEIC filetype. You really need to use a common format such as JPG. mtaylor 1 Quote SAY NO TO PIRACY.
