I dunno..
Maybe I'm just old....maybe I'm just stupid, but...i can't think of *any* reason I'd want a guy to send me a picture on here, or why *I* would send him any..spock

Like i said..if the conversation has gotten anywhere...we'll move to e-mail..and then if we want to share pictures of our critters, or whatever...seems like *that* would be a better place.

All I need to see on *here* are his profile pictires...that is sufficient for me.

I thought Mingle2 was open communications. I know of a number of dating websites where that is not true; only women can begin the messaging.

I was messageing a lady. In the back as nd forth we sent pictures. There is a camer as icon under where you type on the app. There you can take a live picture or pic one off your device.

But i have a young woman send me a naked kitty pic in her first message once. drool

I have had a couple guys add me as "favorite"..
I asked them why they did that instead of just messaging me...
They claimed they can't message women first because they aren't a paid member.

I think that's horse crap...and suspect they were scammers sanyway..

Is it true the only way guys can message women is to be paid members?
I didn't think that was the case.




Maybe they want to see if the Women have interest in them and reply with a Message.

If that is the case, then send a "Wink" or "Blow a kiss" (under the "Nudge" thing)...

Adding me as a "Friend" doesn't tell me you are interested...I get scammers every day doing that...

oops i thought it was with the bbcodes, which are explained in the 1st topic in help.
but i know the will send and appear as a pic.


I went here:

https://mingle2.com/topic/199646

I didn't see how to include a picture in a post, or a message.
I saw where you can add the link to a picture....
(Insert image:

Stick an [ img ] at the beginning and end of:
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7c/Go-home.svg/100px-Go-home.svg.png

But that's not something you can do when the picture is one of your own, on your own computer...saved on your own computer.

I normally date older women due to the fact women that are my age or younger do not have there acts together or they are not mature enough for me, and kinda had to learn to grow up faster than normal but that is why I send nudges at times because I truly don't want some older mature women to think I am trying to strongly come onto her or make her feel uncomfortable, but lately I have been sending messages to them but the big thing is there are so many fake accounts on here.

I was starting to wonder if there were really any real people on here lol. If I have ever called your account fake please forgive me because I would never try to hurt someone for real just going crazy with all these fake accounts, and if I haven't got back to you it is because I work a lot at Apple as a programmer, just wanted to make that clear thanks. I hope everyone has a great night and sleep well :)

I wish someone would answer this..I have not been able to figure it out either.

If you copy the image location as stated in the BBSCode thread you can post the link here and the pic will show up.. Just like this one does.. If you Quote this post you will see that the [ img ] then [ / img ] goes before and after with no spaces.. It is all laid out in the thread for BBC Codes where you can go to that thread and practice...

I just grabbed this one off the net just now just googled images that I wanted..

Thank you txsgal. But i think the issue that people are trying to address is how to add pictures off your device (without a pinterest or tumbler account) in mail messages / forums.

If you are on the app and they have the app you can send pictures through e-mails. But you have to be on the App not the full site..

With the App Women have to send a picture first due to guys sending nudes that feature was put in place...

With the App you click on Camera and send the pic you want too..which was addressed as well.

As far as sending e-mails everyone can send e-mails many that choose to send a nudge or a Friends Request do it to by pass e-mails for you can not report them there showing their message they sent you.. Or at times it is due to your filters and they can not e-mail you but can send a friends request...

And I do not have a tumbler account or any other, I just find images and copy the url to it then past it here... But I'm on a computer for I do not know how to to do it all on a phone.. If you know how to copy and paste from a phone it will work the same way.. Just have to make sure the img codes are there to show up..

But, that still doesn't answer how to post a picture from your OWN computer..
Like, it's IMG_428.....(that's san exsmple of what the pic is called on my computer)
How is *that* going to work with that information you gave?
