Posting to My Second Life from inworld

[namssab1nad Piers]

I know how to post a comment to My Second Life through my profile.  What I cannot figure out is how to include a picture.  I tried everything and nothing.  I use the current version of Phoenix.  Still cannot figure out how to include a picture in the feed.  Anybody know how to do that?  Any help would be apprecriated.

Click the camara icon on your toolbar.  Select post to profile in the window that appears.  As simple as that.

AFAIK there is no such option in Phoenix (or Firestorm). The "post to my profile" option only exists in LL's official viewer. You may however save a picture to your Flickr and post a link in your web profile.

On Firestorm 4.0.1 you can upload images to your profile from the snapshot preview but sadly no longer to Flickr, which is the option I miss most.

Thanks for the information sparkles, I am not a Firestorm user so your post is most helpful! :smileyhappy:

@ the OP, you may consider using Firestorm instead of Phoenix maybe.

I don't want it to post to my profile.  I want it to post to my feed.  Or is this another one of those cases where LL can't seem to use the same terminology all the way through a process so they try to make everyone look like idiots when its really them that are the idiots for not using simple, clear, and consice language?

Phoenix users are missing out on a lot these days. their stuborness will out work it self one of thse days lol

I think it is just a mixup in terminology.  The feed is part of your profile so I would assume that 'posting to your profile' is the same as 'posting to your feed'

The problem with Phoenix is that it is not based on V3 code.  Its still V1 with a few new capabilities mixed in.  So, your missing out on a number of things.  Try the new release of Firestorm V4.  You can make UI look like Phoenix, but get all the benefits of V3 code.  There is a link to a video on their website that shows you how to do this.  

People that I know that have switched find it just as satisfactory and are actually getting better performance with it than with Phoenix even on old computers.  You should make the leap, because Phoenix will sooner rather than later no longer work in SL.  The Phoenix team has stated that it will no longer be supported and no new releases will be coming out as all their concentration is now on Firestorm.  It is only a matter of time before you will have to switch if you want to enjoy SL for much longer.

Funny, these are old posts and in it I am hearing all the hype that went out when Phoenix was the "big thing" to move to... even though it wasn't complete and needed updating about every ten seconds.  Back then they said Emergence was no longer viable but I used it well for over a year until I got personal word of a stable version of Phoenix.  When I tried Firestorm, it played havoc on my and my daughter's computer... and we're not the first or only to have that happen.  So this sounds like recycled hype. 

The safe thing for Phoenix users is to keep using Phoenix until a stable version of Firestorm comes out.  We're not missing out on anything except uploading pics and that can be done via Flickr apparently... we won't die.
