When all your files have uploaded, thumbnails of your pictures will appear at the bottom of the File Upload Manager in the 'Attachments' box..All pictures in here will end up in your post..If you wish to add any previously uploaded pictures to your post just drag them from above and into the Attachments box..
From here you can do several things..If you click the 'Insert Inline' button all the check marked pictures in the Attachment box will be added to wherever the cursor is in your post..If you click 'Done' or close the File Upload Manager and do nothing else, all the pics will be placed at the Bottom of your post after you hit the Submit Reply button..(See Bottom of this Post for an example)
But for the most control of where your pictures will end up in you post, first close the File Upload Manager and then place the cursor anywhere in your post that you want to insert a picture and then click the Paperclip icon, this time there will be a drop down menu of your pictures..Click on a picture name and it will be inserted into your post..
Any pictures you do not insert will be placed at the bottom of your finished post..(See Bottom of this Post for an example)
If for any reason you want to add or delete any pictures before you finish your post, just click the Paperclip icon again and click where it says 'Manage Attachments' and it will bring up the File Upload Manager..To add pictures just follow the instructions above..To Delete a picture, just put your cursor over any picture in the Attachments box that you want to delete and click the small X that appears in the top right corner of the picture and you will be asked if you really want it removed, click 'OK' and it will be removed..
The last thing to do before finishing your post is to click the 'Preview Post' button to make sure everything is how you want it..
When you are satisfied with your post click on the 'Submit Reply' button to finish...
