I just couldn't wait and then I forgot

I couldn't wait to get to 500 posts, just so I could add pictures to my discussions. At 501, I excitedly posted a picture, but now I'm at 600 and something posts and I keep forgetting. I write the discussion, hit the submit button and then "add tags" is looking at me. Then I realize that I forgot all about adding the picture. It happens to me 9 times out of 10. Do you simply forget to add pictures, are you adding them faithfully or do you just not want to take the time?

Oh my gosh. I could have written this discussion! I couldn't wait to be able to add pictures to my discussions and comments. I finally hit the magic number and I forget almost every single time! It never fails that it is right after I hit the post button that I remember that I have a corresponding picture to go with it!

I don't know why it is that I forget almost every single time, but I do. Now I know I'm not the only one. By the way thanks for your support in another discussion. Smile.

You're welcome.
I guess some people take things a little more seriously but we can't control how they feel. I for one...am going to continue to have fun here!

Well actually i don't take any interest in uploading the pictures with my discussions. Just because i can't make pictures nor do i do some editing on them. And also if i download them from internet they may be copyrighted which is against the guidelines of mylot. So its better for me not to upload pictures...
Keep posting

How can you tell the difference between what has been copyrighted and what is just stock photos?

I don't know which photos are copyrighted or not copyrighted. Until unless if i didn't take that photo from my mobile or if i didn't make it myself... i don't like to upload it on mylot...
Thanks for reading me and comment me...
Keep posting!!!

I forget at times too. I add them when I remember though which is not that often.

I have tried exactly what you describe and once I did get the picture up, added the tags and description and when I pushed the button, hey presto! no picture. Fortunately I have a lovely friend who knows what she's doing and she put it up for me. But I must learn, as I cannot depend on others all the time. Thank you for taking me through it though. I shall try again before long.

I've forgotten many times too. I haven't started many new discussions lately so it's not been a big deal. I've spent more time answering, but of course I never remember to add a photo there either.
Go figure ...
I started a discussion a little while ago and remembered, though. Yea me!
(And posting a photo here, just because I can!)

LOL, you are about 20 steps ahead of me. You've done really well since being on this site.

And then of course I hit 'post comment' before posting the photo!
Anyway, here's a pic I took last year at my house in NC.

I admire you so much.You must be a persisting person who insists doing everything to the last minutes.I really should learn from you.
I am just a newer on this site,I have not had experiences yet,I need to work harder,however,English is my second language,sometimes I could not understand the meanings entirely,even to do the comments for them.I am not scared and afraid of that,I just know,if I do paste the response and read and write English everyday,I am sure I can be successful at last.
600 posts is my target!
I will do that in the future,believe me!
I also want to post my pictures to show every reader then.

Your english is actually quite good. Just keep trying with this site and it will eventually come to you. And if you don't understand, don't be afraid to ask. The people here are really nice and never mind helping.

Really thats funny. I couldn't do it until I hit 500. How strange. Or perhaps I could and didn't know it. Oh well, I would have forgotten anyway.

I am very sporadic in my picture posting. Some days every day gets a picture. Other days, none. If I find a super good picture, I may start a discussion just to be able to use it! The penny each picture earns is not enough motivation to go searching for pictures for every post.

I love the icon you added to this discussion. Thats very cute. Only a penny a picture? They make it sound like you'd earn so much more.

Thank goodness I'm not the only one. I thought I was having more and more senior moments.

I think since I hit 500 posts, I have only added pictures a handful of times. Normally I just don't have a good picture to go with the discussion. And, second you can't post pictures that are not yours. If you try to post pictures that you get off the internet and are copyrighted your discussion will get deleted. So I just don't bother with it.
