Mike,

Welcome to the forum.

Here is an easy way to post pictures in the body of your post or in your signature. Just follow my directions and let me know if you have a problem. You will have to resize them with your picture software before posting them (especially if you are using a high pixal camera). 640 x 320 is about as large as you will want to go.

If you want to post full size pictures you have to use a picture host on the net. Go to www.photobucket.com and sign up. Then download your pictures from your computer to photo bucket. Once you get the ones you want downloaded pick a picture you want to post here. Just below the picture (in photo bucket) you will see a URL. Right click and copy it. Now go back to the forum and when you are in your post look up below the bottom right smiley face and you will see an image button. Click on it and it will insert this in your post [IMG][/IMG]. Now see the two middle brackets--][-- Put you cursor between them and right click and ipaste your copied URL from photo bucket here. When you are done it will look like this. [IMG]http//photobucketmyphotosomething[/IMG]. Now scroll down and click OK. Your picture should be in your post.

If you want a picture in your signature you will do basically the same thing except after you have copied your URL from photo bucket go back to the forum and click on "My Profile" at the top of the forum page. Now scroll down until you see "My Signature". In the white box on the right type [IMG] then insert (paste) your URL. Now type [/IMG] It has to be exact with no spaces between your image brackets and the URL. Now scroll down and click on OK or Apply and your image should be saved in your signature. Do another test to see if it worked.

If you have any questions, send me a pm.

Terry
