Default Positioning attachments

Is there any way to control where attachments are on the page. Several times I wanted to have comments between photos, or both above and below the photo.

The only way that I've found to do that is to use another host... I like Photobucket, but I'm sure there are many more good ones out there. Then you would simply use the Insert Image option instead of Managing Attachments... After clicking Insert Image you paste the link to the picture in the box. You can then type above or below it.

This is possible by inserting your picture attachments before you submit the post. After you have attached your files, there is a little downward-pointing arrow next to the paper clip. If you click on that, it will give you the option of inserting each attachment where you are in the post. This picture shows what I mean.

Then you can write above and below it.

I hope this helps.

Very nice... I didn't even know about that feature, thanks again Josh, that's a lot faster than the method I was using.

And every time, it would print the attachment at the end, like it or not!

Thank you, Josh!!

Thanks Josh,

I just tried your suggestion and after a little work I figured it out using some old fishing pictures. I didn't mean to start a new thread my mistake. Sorry not to use gun pics but with this snow I needed to look at something that would warm the old bones.

OK, this is too cool, I have to try it myself.

Here's the first picture before:

Name:  Mauser08.jpg
Views: 297
Size:  85.1 KB

..........and here's the one of after:

Name:  Mauser206.jpg
Views: 298
Size:  91.2 KB

I've always wanted to know how to do this!!!

By the way, it's two different stocks on the old Mauser, I didn't ruin the beautiful original one. The one I painted had been messed up by Bubba.
