Click on the dropdown box at the paperclip at the top of the box you're typing in, select "browse" and upload the picture, then close that window and click the arrow again and select the file for the image you just uploaded (or "insert all" if you have more than one picture). Takes about 5 seconds and no hosting required, just upload from your computer.

Thanks I'll give it a try. Seems much simpler.

They were down this afternoon for maintenance-

I have been using Flickr instead- a little more cumbersome but you don't get pop-ups plus they don't limit your bandwidth then lock up your account till you give them some money!!!

Im still using Photobucket (along with the paperclip method with smaller sized files) and I dont pay them anything, and I have so much storage I can't get close to using it all.

Ditto. Free account and no storage issues.

Hi,
It IS a quick way!
How do you control the size the pic appears?
Regards,
Alan

Spring should arrive any day now!

Alan,
It's picking up the size you have the .jpg stored on your computer. If I right-click on yours and choose "Properties" it shows 1024 x 680 pixels. Neat feature that I did not know about!

For years I have been going back and forth one pic at a time between the Forum and PhotoBucket to get a multi-pic thread up. Very tedious. This option to post a multi-pic spread in one upload is just wonderful!

If you'd like to pm me your phone number, I can call and we can talk about it. It's very quick and easy. You can even insert language between the pictures, or above or below by spacing the picture titles.
