I thought I'd start this thread to get OldStrummer to expand on what he posted in another thread:
"It's unlikely your computer is the reason others cannot see your photos. I can understand YOU not being able to see them, given the systems you listed are so obsolete they could be considered candidates for a computer museum, but others with newer hardware and software should have no issue.
In fact, it's all about the web browser. The underlying framework of all browsers is the core technology, known as its rendering engine. The three most common engines are WebKit (Apple), Blink (Google Chrome and all other Chromium-based browsers, notably Microsoft Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, Samsung Internet and Opera) and Gecko (Firefox, Thunderbird and derivatives). The late, unlamented Internet Exploder... er, Explorer (IE) by Microsoft was a known problem that Microsoft refused to address until they came out with Edge. The company I work for plainly states that IE should not be used with our products.
The means to posting photos has been a sticky tutorial here for a while. If you're still trying to attach files to your post, you're likely running into problems with the forum software. TFF uses an old version of vBulletin, v4.2.4. The current stable release is 5.7.1 (version 5 was released in 2012). Problems with file size, type and most likely local storage can all cause problems. That's why I strongly recommend the use of (free) image hosting sites like IMGUR or the site I use, POSTIMAGES. I just upload my photos, copy the link that's generated and paste that into my post. I haven't had a glitch posting photos this way since I started doing so."
So is it the machine itself. I admit to being lazy about installing updates. I used to use Lillypix, but have been using Google photos for hosting for several years, and no problems until the last few months. I have been buying the HP SFF computers for years, as they are cheap, and easy to service, the top has a latch, and everything inside snaps/slides for replacement. I was happy to stay with Win 7 32 bit as I have some obsolete repair programs that I had to use a Virtual disk to run in Win 10, 64 bit. (My wife has been using that machine for years now!) I have another 32 bit machine that I had to upload Win 10 when MS update was not compatible with the chip, and sent it into a start/stop loop!
I see the pic I posted yesterday, from the machine I posted it from, (this one).
