I don't know if it's just me, but there doesn't appear to be any way to attach pictures
or attachment to PM's.

This would be a neat feature because it happens pretty often
that I'd like to send someone a specific picture or file.

Let me know if (..and how) this can be done.

Thanks.
Steph

Easiest way is to upload the image on a free server (i use imageshack) and then you can always include them in pms, i did it several times.

Best of all, once you uploaded them once, just point people to the urls after (usefull especially when you have a game for sale and needs to send thousands of emails to people).

Yes and no...

I'm not a big fan of uploading to a public server...

For one it's slower than attaching a file directly from your PC,
for another, I "think" you have to register on those pictures sites,
and lastly (but more importantly) , all those "free" servers blast you with
ads or other pop-ups  (..yes, I know I can block those...)

If I want to post many pictures for all to view,
I'll post them to my web site  (www.arcade.chezsuys.com).

I was just looking for something quick and easy for a "one-time" only attachment on a PM
I guess it can't be done...
(...which is fine, ... as long as I wasn't missing an easy way to do it...)

Thanks,
Steph
