Well I bought and sort of figured out how to use Tapatalk. I'll check out what Rodeo said. Thanks!

I download from my iPhone all the time. Take pics using the “Square” option when you turn ur camera on. Hold ur phone vertical (up n down longways) and scroll thru “picture” and “video” and “slo-mo” till you get to “Square”. Select “Square” and take pics. When you use this option you don’t have to go back and edit your pics. Not using this option you would typically see pictures posted sideways or upside down.

Or you can pay for Tapatalk. I’ve been posting pics on here for 8 yrs and no problems at all.

I'm usually on CB with my PC not my phone so I'm not really familiar with using the phone for direct uploading of pics. However, I'll so learn......Thank you all for the info!

This website has been hard to use for years...., many, MANY years. Even after you pay the pay, its still very difficult to post pic's. I was hoping, and still am hoping, the owner of the site would take the time/money required and fix it!

take pics with your iphone by pointing the volume buttons to the ground and they will post correctly. for other pics you have to go into the pic editor and rotate 180* save it open it back up and rotate it another 18* ad save it then it will post correctly. I do this regularly with older pics but now i always point the volume buttons to the ground. lol

Okay, more good pointers. So what steps do you take to post once you've taken the pics the correct way? No laughing.....

Hit post reply. Then scroll down below the type in box and click on the upload phots button. Another page will open. Click on upload photo button. That should take you to your photo library on your phone. Choose the one you want. It will take you back to the upload screen. Wait til it loads. Then I hit the back screen button a couple times to get back to the post reply screen. I always hit preview post to make sure the picture if properly oriented. Then submit reply

I down loaded the tap a talk app that is free and get ads but I have no problem posting multiple photos and it does not matter how I take them, they always come out right side up. Not sure why, I am using an iPhone 7.

Hadn't seen that "Square" option before.. Mostly just made sure bottom of phone was pointed to the right when taking a pic (horizontal) and no issues

Hey crush. I can put up to 8 pics in one post. But I do have to go back in my picture gallery one at a time.
