Thanksfor asking this and in order to help I will also add this as a post on all forums. Photos can be added to any post or report but first of all you will need a photobucket account. Log on to photobucket.com/ and sign up for a free account. I have used photbucket for a long while and it is free and causes absolutley no problems to your system. Photobucket allows you to create URL links and hosts your photos for internet posting. When you have added the photo to your photobucket account you can then copy the URL and paste it into the post. On the "create post" section or "reply" on this site you will see "add tags" and a button 2nd row 4th from left that when clicked creates a set of double brackets containing img and /img command. Simply paste the photo url between this. Then the report can be supported by a nice colour photo like:

That's what he's referring to rodbender and he's trying to get people like yourself to post their reports by offering help with pics, after all, your posts on fishing reports is nil tut tut
Your last post was about the huge number who 'read' the forum and don't post reports and since then you've erm, read the forum but havn't posted any reports.

Correct.
For months I was practically the only one on here pushing thread after thread that no one could be bothered replying to, and giving advice when asked.
Think its quite well known now that this site, caters for the internet lurkers who are on to glean information and not to participate.
I'm not about to give reports on my weekly trips to anyone who wont reciprocate, I'm afraid.
And looking at the recent reports....less than 15 in the last 6 months...erm, no-one else is about to either.
However I congratulate your efforts.

Rodbender, I would be very interested to see some more reports and one way of encouraging them is to make the site inviting to new members. Im a "big letters" and "pictures" sort of bloke and like to see a report with some nice photos. Its up to you if you would like to put some up on here and I do know they would be very much appretiated. The Webmaster is doing a lot with the site and more members and reports are sought.

Hey Rod Bender don't give up hope....just compare the English Channel forum to your one in Scotland.....which has the highest number of threads ??
I post virtually every trip and even negative reports.
I have looked recently and found that there are rival sites out there; but this is still the best one by far and it is down to good contributions and thus people like yourself.
Cheers - Murph

Blame me. I seriously neglected the forums while I favoured the Welsh one as it's where I fish. This allowed abusers (some of them webmasters of other sites) to ruin things. An example of one such post (on the southwest forum) said 'This is post 64, am I ruining your forum yet'. I put an admin onto the northeast forum and it began picking up again. I've done it on all the forums but it takes time to recover from that sort of damage. Blame me, don't blame the admins. I'm the cause and they're the cure.

In the North Wales forum, I asked the 20 viewing people to stop scabbing the info and contribute to the forum! Within minutes at least a couple of people responded and said that they were new, and would contribute in the future. If you catch a couple of coddling at your favorite mark, don't tell the world exactly where and how, just say the general area and bait etc! If you don't want 20 anglers at your venue when you turn up, then don't post your catch! And don't complain when others don't post their catch reports for the very same reason! Angling is the biggest sport in the UK and is coming under quite a lot of scrutiny, make it work!!
