Posting Pics

[Smokey74]

How do you post a picture here?

Do you have to use a photo service like "Photobucket" or can I load them right from my computer?

I stopped using photobucket because it kept loading viruses into my computer.

Nope. You can do it here. Many threads on that.

I am using postimage.org it is free and it is easy.

I do use photobucket but not nearly as much anymore.

HOW TO POST PICTURES:

To attach directly as "thumbnails".

Start your new post
Scroll down till you see the "Attach Files" header
Click on the "Manage Attachments" Button
Browse to wherever you have your pictures (usually on your own hard drive)
Select the picture
Click Upload
Repeat till you upload all you want to.

Thanks for the replies. How do you guys insert pics right into your message without having to make them attachments? If I click "Insert Image" it asks for a URL for the image, what is a URL?

Sorry if stupid questions....Not a computer genius here!

Fellow computer dummy here... gained experience through trial and error.
URL is the web address found far upper left on your screen.
If you want to post a pic already on your computer, read post #3.
if you'd like to post something off the web, make sure it's open in another window (right click and open).
Click one time on the URL and highlight then hit CTRL and C.
Go back to S&W and when you click Insert Image press CTRL V.
Helluva lot easier doing it than typing this.
Good Luck
Brad

The instructions on the "Sticky" are only good if you are using Photobucket. I won't be using that anymore, see my first post #1!
