| # | Post |
|---|---|
| 1 | underneath that photo was a whole lot of other little baby icon photos. so i clicked on them and they were all her photos. so does that mean i have seen all those other photos b4 and its those ones she has already sent me.? and thats the one shes sent me? or didnt she KNOW that i could see those photos? i never really thought about it, but i had SEEN most of the photos. but then i sent a photo to someone, who i dont know that well, and i looked at the photo after i sent it, and then saw MYSELF, MY little icons of photos that are on my phone, etc. so i thought , f$K and quickly deleted it, cause i didnt want her to see my photos cause there were surgical photos on there. do u get what i mean? so how the f do , when u send a photo, not have those little icons come up. and is it only phone photos that do it. i havnt used my camera for years, but there are camera photos on there. katybaty - 2021-09-07 08:09:00 |
| 2 | I really can't answer that. without more info. Just HOW exactly did the friend send you the photo ? nice_lady - 2021-09-07 08:12:00 |

| 4 | what exact process do you use to send a pic thru FB messenger ? personally I'd just long press on the photo and 'share' to messenger ? Or from within the messenger program tap the picture icon next to the text box, choose the photo from the available pictures by tapping it then tap send . is this what you're doing ? nice_lady - 2021-09-07 08:19:00 |
| 5 | You guys must be not sending individual photos but basically linking to your photo ALBUM ? nice_lady - 2021-09-07 08:20:00 |
| 6 | nice_lady wrote: um. i write my message, and i think theres a little camera picture there that u can access your "my pictures", so i looked thru my pictures to show her what i wanted, and i clicked on the photo and it came up, so i just pressed send. katybaty - 2021-09-07 08:21:00 |
| 7 | just had another look. it says "attach a photo or video". so i clicked on that one. katybaty - 2021-09-07 08:23:00 |
| 8 | I believe that's what I'm doing also but I certainly don't send all my photos ? are you sure you're sending ONE photo from within an album ? - not just cliking on an album ? nice_lady - 2021-09-07 08:29:00 |

| 10 | The row of small icons at the bottom of the FB photo viewer is showing you thuumbnails of all of the other photos in that conversation. gyrogearloose - 2021-09-07 09:22:00 |

Just checked that in messenger and had two photos sent to me with text inbetween them and there's no 'small icons at the bottom" ? nice_lady - 2021-09-07 09:25:00 |

| 13 | OK, this almost happened to me the other day - I almost sent my whole 500+ photos to my work messenger group. lyl_guy - 2021-09-07 09:50:00 |
| 14 | katybaty wrote: In the photo viewer you can only highlight one photo. You can't shift-click or alt-click to select multiple photos like you can in, say, explorer. Therefore you can only forward one photo at a time from the FB photo viewer. gyrogearloose - 2021-09-07 09:53:00 |
| 15 | OK if you're on a PC it's easy - just put the photo(s) you want to send, onto your desktop. lyl_guy - 2021-09-07 09:57:00 |
| 16 | nice_lady wrote: lol - what device, phone, tablet, desktop - what OS, C/PM, 3.1? My observation is the small icons at the bottom take a few seconds to load, presume there's some processing going on at the server to make the list. It doesn't show videos either 'cause it's the photo viewer rather than a media viewer. gyrogearloose - 2021-09-07 09:57:00 |

Android phone and windows computer - no extra little icons at all. nice_lady - 2021-09-07 10:05:00 |

There's 3 thumbnails beneath the main photo. https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/1604611561.jpg For sure, some people get different versions of FB, such as trials or previews, and there's probably options for this or that.

Seriously?, "C/PM, 3.1", she already said FB Messenger, show me a C/PM or 3.1 OS running that? - talk about adding ridiculous irrelevant noise to clutter a topic. KISS ! cookee_nz - 2021-09-07 10:16:00 |

similar but that's not messenger which is what she's talking about. nice_lady - 2021-09-07 10:19:00 |
| 21 | Katybaty, can you specify what you're using the messenger on? PC/laptop, tablet, phone? What device? lyl_guy - 2021-09-07 10:22:00 |

And yes, I'm looking at FB messenger, I'm seeing the same row of small icons at the bottom that the OP talks about. And as I've said, what you see might be different on a mobile or if FB gives you a different version to experience. gyrogearloose - 2021-09-07 10:24:00 |

If you're the self-appointed messageboard sheriff, why don't you start a thread laying out the rules? And when I quoted nice-lady and mentioned C/PM - I started the post with "lol" - did you miss that? As Tommy Chong says, "Dave's not here"... gyrogearloose - 2021-09-07 10:48:00 |
