How do I Post Pictures

[rmvw guy]

Is there a simple way to post pictures? I have different results every time I try this. I get real small thumbnails or they are to large to attach. Sometimes if you click on them they will get larger. I have had very limited success. Anybody?

The best way to do it is to set up an account with one of the photo hosting sites, like Fotki, Photobucket etc. When you have your pictures hosted there, they have their own URL so you can copy/paste it with ease.

I'm not sure about the others, but Fotki has (limited space) free accounts; once you outgrow the space allowed in the freebies, however, they are always running specials on their premium memberships.

No problem at all. When you view the individual photo in Fotki, there is a small bit of text above the picture that says 'share.' If you click that once(sometimes twice), it comes up with three choices for URL, based on the place you're sending the picture. The first choice says 'image URL for use on other sites' - move your cursor over the URL under that bit of text and left click once; the line should blink orange once, and that says you're done copying the image. **The cool part of the above process is that you do not need to be signed in to Fotki to use it.

When posting here, and you are ready to add your photo, click the small icon that looks like a polaroid picture, and use the 'ctrl' and letter 'c' to copy the image URL.

Thanks Dave, Think I've got it!

Glad to help, now let's see some pictures!!

***Ironically, after helping you, I had trouble posting pics myself the past couple of days; the glitch has been sorted, and I'm back on track now.
