welcome to the forum!!

you need to use a hosting site for pics. i use photobucket.com (they've got a free service and a pay). upload your pics to the site and then copy the link info (IMG line info if you use photobucket) and then paste it into your post.

really easy. the bucket even has a resize function if you need to downsize the pics, too.

hello Mark and welcome to the family.

i went to see the site you ve got in your profile;how very very nice,so interesting.i like your little town a lot,it looks just like dreamland,so very beautiful,and the history parts of it,incredible.

Jaclyn is right, build yourself a photobucket album and you won t have any trouble at all sharing your photo.

if you want to you can send loz or jiffy your address for the xmas card trade,it s fun and it gives you a chance to receive one from everywhere.

well , again welcome and tata for now!!

Francine.

Theres a thread somewhere {forum guidelines??} explaining photo sites.
If you go to www.photobucket.com joining is simple. Then we can help with any questions.

that hummingbird thing someone else here posted and I copied to my photobucket.

Welcome,look forward to seeing you around;-)
Posted By: Wrennie Re: Newbie - December 8th, 2006 at 12:37 AM
aaaaaaaaahhh. I see.
Go near the top of this page. Click on profile/messages.
Go into your profile. Click on edit profile.
Scroll about 1/2 way down where it says Signature.
put in
{Then insert your photobuckets address here that shows up in the address bar when you're in your photobucket}

Then scroll down and hit the edit profile button at the bottom of the page.
grinnnn
Posted By: Wrennie Re: Newbie - December 8th, 2006 at 12:40 AM
also
If you want to pot just one of your pics from photobucket:
Go under the picture you want to show theres 3 lines of code. One says IMG before it. Highlight, copy, and paste that line in your post here. Just be sure the photo size is 640 x 480 or smaller.
