Unable to Upload photos from Photos app to forum

Hi guys, I need your help please. I tried to upload some photos from my Mac's Photos library to a forum today but the Photos library was greyed out. Any idea what's gone wrong?


I've attached a screen shot below. I had to save this to my Desktop as I am able to upload from there. I just can't import from the Photos library.

Hi mate. Thank you very much. I feel a bit silly now :-)


Is it normal that when I do it this way my oldest photos are at the top and I then have to scroll all the way down to my most recent photos?


Also, the actual pictures screen is tiny compared to the list of albums. I then have to resize everything overtime I go to upload.
