Sign up for free hosting at Photobucket.com.

Organize the pics you want to upload on you desktop. Make them JPEGs and no bigger than 500x500.

Log into your new Photobucket account, and click browse, or click multiple images.

Browse your desktop for your images, and click upload. It'll finish and show you a thumbnail of all your images. Under each one will be three addresses. Click on the bottom of the three, the one with [IMG] tags, and it'll copy itself.

Paste that link in the thread, and click submit. Bingo...picture is there.

D-boy,
Thanks for your easy step-by-step you posted a while back. I printed and saved it, and that's what I used this morning to post my first ever photos. Only took me about an hour (of company time ) which means most anybody else could do it in a couple minutes .

You'll be an expert in no time. Here's something cool too. If you find an imgage you like on the net, like froma Google search, and you want to post it...just do this:

Copy and paste the image link from the address bar of the picture. Then, put [IMG] at the front and [/IMG] at the back. It'll show up on the post, linked to the website where you copied it from.

Only do this when the image is the only thing on that address...because it won't work for pages with text.

Here's a test.

Go to Google.com. Click images, and search for 'Bump.'

Click on the first image icon...not the address...that comes up. A yellow bump sign. At the top, click, 'See Full Size Image.'

Then, copy the address in the address bar, and paste it into your next post on this thread.

After you paste it, add a [IMG] in front of it, and a [/IMG] in back of it. Submit the thread, and you'll see a...

Great picture, but the reason it didn't work was because there is more on that page than just an image. You would have to save that file to your desktop, upload it to an image hosting site, and then post that link with [IMG] tags.
