how do you post pics,and in non computer language.

I find a photo in my photo files on my computer. I right mouse click on the photo and choose "Send in email". In the screen that comes up, I choose "Mediun Size" and send the e-mail to myself with the photo attached. When the e-mail to myself arrives, I save the downsized photo with a file name I recognize and can find.



To post the photo in a thread, I click on the "paperclip" at the top of the page which is "Atachments". A screen will come up and click on "Browse". Browse through your Documents file and find the photo from your e-mail that you saved and click on it, then click on "Open". The file name should appear in the box and click on "Upload" and it should apper in your post.

If the picture is already uploaded on the internet such as phoito bucket all you need to do is copy the source URL and then with you cursor in the post field click on the little photo icon on the tool bar and paste the URL in the box and enter.



I usually upload all my pictures to photobucket so this method works great.

If you click on "Insert Image" instead of the "paper clip" symbol on the top row and you want to add a photo from your files, you will get that message.



If you are trying to add a downsized photo from your files, follow my instructions in the second paragraph.
