I'm such a technodummy I have to be told (better yet, shown) EVERY tiny detail or I can't do it. Dumb as I am, I still can't understand what to do, not even with your directions. If you were standing next to me and telling me what to do exactly, I might be able to do it, but even with your instructions I still don't get it...:sorry

I just went to TinyPic and tried it but couldn't "open" the place on my computer where my pix are. I give up. I still don't understand your instructions...

:wtf2

:)

Least, what folder are your pics in? You know where about on your computer you keep them, like a pictures folder or something? :confused:

If you can tell us where they are, you can get past the 'browse' bit that you're stuck at. PM me if you want. :wave:

Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket

works good too because you can save them in there and use them again-

Thanks nelco

I am also a technodummy......if it's physical I can do it.....if it's mental.....not so much...........

What pictures :D

Rella I borrowed your gorgeous sig :)

Here is my goofball....see I did this pic thing right....LOL.

Ok....This didn't work again. Must reread and learn how to insert pics :(

Kmber - ex IT, not image saavy....lol.

Oopsie.....I bumped the thread :gaah

I did catch on, finally, and now it's easy to upload a pic from my computer to post.:) Just be sure in step 2 to resize your image to "forums, message board" size. That will look just right.:)

Hey Least...I would have done their nails for free...I just did this sweet little girl today.

It was a beautiful day to get everyone out in the fresh air. Think we all have cabin fever.

just seein if I can do this

ok...lol first time was epic fail, but I see now...thanks

I got it to work, then I couldn't do it again LOL

Can I put in the url off of any image that I google? or do I need to go through a specific site to find images? I think I have the how-to part down, but the last couple I tried just resulted in a tiny red x in my post.

I've noticed some sites won't allow you to direct link like that with URLs, like Flickr...and others, like photobucket obviously want you to log in there and use their codes...

also watch when you cut and paste URLs you only have one 'http:' in there :)

D

yes, I saw my double http: goof-up haha. ok I understand now what you are saying (I think...) I am inserting the url, but since I'm not signed in or it's in some other way restricted by whatever site I'm pulling it from, it just gives me the little red x...is that right? also, can I use an image that's on my drive and follow the same procedure?

ok so I will try tinypic

thank you dee :)

Most sites are ok - it's probably the double http.

Using something like tinypic, imageshack etc is fine.

you can sometimes use the 'manage attachments' button when you post, to add a pic (you can't use that in quick reply mode tho, and the pic can't be too big).

The server problems at the moment might make that process tricky tho - it's probably best not to use that method too much to avoid server overload :)

Testing...

oops...sorry. WAY too big. :(

I need to check this out.

TOD

I wanna try....

No... I am in Picassa or something and won't let me. I have to sign in or something. Forget it.

It's late and I'm tired. :(((((
