Assistance needed

In an earlier message 'Quantum' wrote:
To upload a zip file with the subs file, you'll need to use the attachment option on the message posting form - but not on this Gallery Submission board, as attachment posting isn't permitted here. One of the other boards will be fine.
The only attachment options I could find are IMAGE UPLOAD and ZIP FILE.
Both methods apparently only work for image files.
Did I miss something?
By the way: PKZip is not an option for me. I don't have the software.
The only compression method available to me is Winrar and that is not recognised here.
Isn't there a way to attach an uncompressed file?
The srt file I want to upload is about 90 kilobytes.
I do hope there is a solution for my predicament.
Thanks in advance!

You can add non image files as attachments using the Attachment box on the posting form. Not all boards allow attachments (this one doesn't and the gallery board doesn't) - the General Board does.
I've added rar and srt to the permitted file extensions for attachments.

Thanks a lot!
I am gradually learning the ins and outs of this forum.
So sorry that computer manufacturers nowadays seem to discourage any initiative by their customers. Whatever happened to good-old DOS, PKZip, GWBasic and all the other nice features?
They were like good friends. I miss them.
