This thread was written in 2008 - is it still applicable?
I am having the devil trying to post a picture...could someone write a simple "how to" and maybe keep it as a permanent part of this topic? I would so appreciate it...know I did it once but I goofed with it so much to make it happen that I forgot the actual steps. Also, sizing suggestions would be nice.

Thanks so much!

Carla, if you use the 'Post Reply' feature instead of the 'Quick Reply' feature, you can post pictures by browsing your computer. Below the text box, you will see an area to add attachments. This is where you browse your computer, select your photo, add it, and that is it--very simple.

As far as sizing, I'm not much help there. I have a simple camera, and I set it where it says 'PC' (7781) for the size, and that comes out perfect for posting on the forum. Larger than that, and the photos take longer to load.

Hope this helps--we may need to change up this photo information, as it is so much easier to post photos now. However, I think if people are using an online photo service like Photobucket, they still need to do it as Paul has directed.

Crystal fixed this feature so you don't have to resize any more.
