A common question by new members is how to post pictures. It's really very simple once you get the hang of it.
1) The picture you would like to post can be located on the web and not necessarily on your computer's hard drive. There are many FREE photo hosting websites. A couple of the popular ones are www.flickr.com, www.photobucket.com and www.imageshack.us
2) When you are typing your post, click the
button on the toolbar. Once you click that, a pop up will open. Simply paste the link to your image in there and you are good to go! It's that simple.
Alternately, some of the photo hosting sites automatically generate the code necessary to post your picture. If it creates code with IMG tags, simply copy/paste that code into your post.
3) You can also upload a photo that's located on your hard drive. To do so, click on "CHOOSE FILE", located in your reply tool bar. Select the image from your computer that you would like to upload ,compose your message and hit Post Reply. Keep in mind that the size of the image must be under 3 Mb.
