A myLot friend asked me to make a post showing some traditional food from my country - Portugal. I thought it was a great idea and I was really excited to start a discussion like that. We have amazing food here and I would be really happy to show it to the world.
To do it, I would need to show photos from the food I would talk about. If I tell you we eat "Alheiras" you have now idea what I am talking about. Not even if I try to explain it to you. it is like a big sausage filled with pork and chicken meat and bread
I need more images to post in my discussions. Having one photo is not sufficient for me, I need more than that.
Do you also need more than one image on your discussions? Do you even post a photo when you start a post?

I thought of that also! Maybe numbering the photos. It is possible.

Yes I think it would be a good idea to have more than just one photo, I've not posted many photos here yet.

@fufurinha I agree with you, maybe given time they may do something about it and you can add more than one photo.

Sometimes it is important to post a photo to help people understand better your posts

I understand your point that for explaining about a dish you need to post more than one image so that others could understand it in a better way. However, there is a provision of uploading only a single image along with the discussion. I also feel that that there should be a scope for posting multiple images. I also like to post an image with my new discussion, provided I have the one related to the discussion. What you could do is - you could post subsequent images related to your discussion when you comment on the responses received in response to your discussion.

Yes, I could do that. But it isn't as efficient as having them all in the "main discussion".

Haven't started posting photos yet, but will surely not miss it, if need be. Photos surely make up for more than ten thousand words, and it would be nice, if one could post more than one of them.

Pictures are always a good idea. At least it makes the post more lively.

Yes sometimes it is needed as i don't always understand what a person is talking about.

You could start several discussions, one for each dish, then add only the photo of that dish you are talking about.

@fufurinha There is no limit on how many discussions we can start here in myLot, so no worries! I would, however, suggest that you space them out a little so you do not flood the pages.

Maybe you can do series of post where you can show some food from Portugal. I am sure you'd cover a lot of topics this way. I can't think of any other way though. I think the more cover in food people will get to know the country. I wish to know more about Portugal too. Never been to that place though went nearby places but not the country. Do add images in the future posts.

Yeah, it would be great if we can upload more than one image in a discussion. Mylot need to do something about this feature to give us more space in providing a more interesting discussion. But since we're currently unable to do so, maybe you can try to combine multiple photos into one for the time being.

@else34 sometimes it is really good to complement what you are saying.

I haven't had the need to post images for my discussions, yet. But who knows? And yes it would be great to see multiple pictures when I read discussions about travel and things like that.

Yes, I am not saying I would need more than one picture in every post. Just in a few discussions.

@fufurinha Yeah maybe some sort of gallery that goes with the discussion. That would be interesting.
