    Can you post a url of one of the photos your are trying use.

    Which site do you use to post your images?

    I'll throw together a little tutorial
     
  3. it's actually some of my photos - when I try to load it says they are too big (Did I say I'm technologically challenged?!)

    Where are you trying to load them?
     
  5. Here! ; I tried to upload a couple of photos of the dessert party, and got to additional options in lower lhc, and attach, browsed proper ones, and tried to attach - but get error message:

    An Error Has Occurred!
    Your file is too large. The maximum attachment size allowed is 1024 KB. ;

    I guess with the digital photo, I have to massage it some way to be able to downsize it a bit to upload it, so that's where I'm a geek... I tried to do it in picasa, but couldn't seem to do it unless I was sending an email... I seem to recall there was some way to upload a photo to a website you create, and then post the link here... I tried in picasa, and that doesn't seem to be it....(I don't think if I upload it to facebook first I can then load it here as a URL?) ; Suggestions?

    Photo's cannot be uploaded from your computer directly to the boards.

    You need to post them to a web based photo hosting site, photobucket, flickr, etc.

    Then grab the url from the photo.

    Back to you Shelia

    I like to use Photobucket.com if I wanted to post a photo or two in the forums.
