Yes, There should be a guide to posting with 'basic' information such as room sizes, floor plans, photos ...

Hi there, I attached photos when I posted my dilemma and they have still not appeared.
What do I do now?

When my work is completed I have the intention of posting the results, it is only fair for all the great suggestions I have received. :)

In the beginning I did not know how to respond to a designer, architect, etc. I am in Houzz for long periods of time and check my dilemmas frequently. So if I want to thank someone for their input I just put it in the body of the messages and hope that they see it. Is there another way?

Hi coolidge4me,
Whenever someone has posted a comment on a particular discussion thread, all subsequent comments on that thread are posted to the commenter's "feed" on their home page. That way you can always follow the discussions you have participated in and see any subsequent photos, comments, etc. Some people also choose to have an e-mail sent notifying of these updates. Personally, I find that too cumbersome. But in either case, if you post follow up comments or photos on a discussion you have begun, anyone who posts a comment to it will receive any of your subsequent comments in their feed.

If your photos didn't load on the original design dilemma discussion, just post a comment on that same discussion with the photos. Try .jpeg format.

Thank you SOOOOO much and I agree the em's are too much .
I'll try the photos as you suggested.

Bobbi P - I completely agree, and I don't understand why some people don't simply thank those helping out. Fortunately there are plenty who do :)
