+media601 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Summary-- When editing a TB page, all photos in the gallery are available in the Select Image drop-down list, but if you select a photo uploaded by another user, an error is generated on Submit Changes. Procedure-- 1. Open a TB page that has at least one photo uploaded by another user (not the current user). 2. Click the Edit link. 3. In the default image drop-down list, select a photo that was uploaded by another user. 4. Click Submit Changes button. A generic error message is displayed and the changes are not saved.

+trainlove Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I don't know what you are saying. You can't 'edit' someone elses photo just as you can't edit someone elses log. If you wish to use their photo as the background photo for your bug, or cache, you have to select (not edit) that photo, save it onto your computer, and then post it to the page. In the case of a background photo you have to use a web hosting service html link to the photo, but that's cake if you are savy. Link to comment
+media601 Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 If you give me the name of a TB you own I can use that as an example. Link to comment
+trainlove Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 If you give me the name of a TB you own I can use that as an example. In about a second you can see the name of EVERY coin I own, don't you know that? Link to comment
+media601 Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 1. Open your Tristan's World TB page. http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=232815 2. Under Trackable Item Options, click Edit this item. 3. In the Bug Image drop-down list, select "Tristan's World on the River". (It is important to select this image because it is the only one that was uploaded by a user other than yourself.) 4. Click Submit Changes. Link to comment

+trainlove Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 (edited) 4. Click Submit Changes. Yes, So what. In my post #2 I told you exactly how to use someone elses photo. You have to do it that way beacuse... Don't you see those words (upload image) right next to the button Bug Image (579494) Tristan's World on the River... In essence, only your photos belong to you. Those others are actually in other peoples gallery. If you want to use them you have to upload them. The links to them point to tieir guid code not yours, unless you post the images yourself. The bug is that they even show up in that pull down list at all. Edited October 2, 2008 by trainlove Link to comment
