    Rudy,, if you scroll down you will find a thing called manage attachments, left click on that. A new window will popup. Left click on browse, and then locate the pic you want to post. Once you find the pic, click on it, you will see that file name appear in the little window next to browse. Then click upload, depending on file size and your connection speed it can take a few seconds. It will then let you know when the pic is uploaded. Close that window then. Then click on submit and you will have a pic on the net.

    Dan,
    Thanks for the tip. We can't put a picture on because it's telling us that our file is too big. How do I change the file size?:confused:

    click on http://www.tucows.com/preview/194967 to download "irfanview". Once at that site, click on which operating system you are using (XP, 2K, 98, other) then download the program.

    You can resize/resample the image with that little tool.


    Gluck

    If you want, you can email them to me and I will downsize them and send them back.

    Hi all. Rick, that is that stuff from "Hormel" which can be delicious.

    Glad I could help.

    Oops, better mention Maverick in this post. Aah. Safe. Jack.

    Dennis,

    I think I might send those pictures to you, but I don't want to keep asking you to downsize pictures whenever I want to post them. Could you tell me how to do it and maybe I'll figure a way to do them at home?

    You have to have a program to do it. There are some freebees out there and a few have been posted on this websight. I have a couple that came with my digital cameras.
