: Ok, here's what I had to do to post your pic. I right clicked on your first post (box with red X) and then clicked properties. A window popped up showing the address to your pic. I highlighted that address and right mouse clicked popping another window up....I clicked copy.....then I shut all those windows and went up to my internet explorer window and clicked (Left button) on the address box, this should highlight what address is in there. Once it's highlighted, I right mouse clicked popping up another window....which I clicked "paste" that should paste the copied address to your pic. I then click on "go" or hit enter.....this should take me to your site (which it did) and when the pic opened up.....I put the cursor over the pic and right clicked....again a window popped up and it should show the address to that pic......I moved my cursor over the address holding down the Left mouse button to highlight it.......then I clicked the left mouse button the copy the address......close all the windows and go back to the forum. Now you are ready for posting on the forum. Open a "Post message" fill in your name....etc... type whatever you want in the comment section, then look at the bottom of the page....you will see three boxes.
: "Optional Link URL"= An address for linking to someone's website
: "Link Title"= What you want to appear as the title to the above link
: "Optional Image URL= Posting a picture on the message.
: Of course you want to put the address in the LAST box. Now to do that....you will left click on the Optional Image URL box, then right click, this will pop up a window....click paste.....the address should show up in the blank box next to Optional Image URL. Now you're ready to hit Submit Follow Up!
: Note: Dishy, the address that you tried to post and the address that I copied, were two different addresses. I think you were trying to post the webpage.....where I was just posting the pic...When using a web company which offers for home pages....some have different addresses on the page....which won't post the pic on the message. You must first put the cursor over the pic...then right mouse click and click properties. This will bring up the true address for the pic....just copy and paste...like above.
: Hope this helps You and anyone else :)
: HD
: PS...it sounds like alot of work....but once you start doing it a few times, it takes just a few seconds to do.
