Anne - try this....
Open your webspace page or wherever you have uploaded your pic to.
By your pic you will (hopefully) see a URL title for the pic which usually starts of : http://img.(followed by a description of your pic).jpg.
Left click on that line of text to highlight it - then click 'edit' then 'copy'.
Then go to the forum and select 'reply to topic' of the appropriate section where you want to put it.
Click on the yellow envelope thingy which will put img and /img in the text space.
Left click in between the img and the /img then click 'edit' and 'paste'
You can then click 'preview' to see how it would appear.
If you only see a square with a red cross in it - you haven't watched my lips closely enough... put your computer back in the box and take up flower arranging :D 8)
Roy
Seriously - if that doesn't work email me your direct address and I will write it all out for you from the beginning... XX

There's nothing next to my pics.  Only thing I can see is the url at the top of the page yet when I put this in all I get is a box with the red x.

Thanks for your help Roy will keep trying lol

ain't working that way either Roy[:(!]
When I copy from the pic there's nothing to paste when I insert it between the brackets.  Only thing highlighted is delete.

Anne,
OK get your computer out of the box again and put the flowers away...:D
It may be something to do with where you are hosting your pics. Quite a few of us use www.photobucket.com as a host site - and it's free. Even I can do it from there so it must be simple.... 8)

The URL at the top of the page won't be any good as it is unlikely to point to the image. Ann what is the address and I will take a look

Anne, at the top of the page to set up an account it says this

Over the next few weeks we will be upgrading our infrastructure to better serve our users.
Therefore we are currently accepting new "free" accounts between 11am-1pm and 11pm-1am mst!


Not sure how many hours mst is behind GMT though!

Anne, see

http://photobucket.com/register.php

They also say:

'Over the next few weeks we will be upgrading our infrastructure to better serve our users.
Therefore we are currently accepting new "free" accounts between 11am-1pm and 11pm-1am mst!'

In the meantime, give me the web address that has your picture on it and I will have a look at why it is not working

This makes it a bit more tricky as it is a secure area that requires a password and userid.

If you want me to look at it for you you will need to tell me your username or password. Otherwise (and more secure) eMail me the picture and I will set it up for you and then tell you how I did it
