Default HELP!!!!, again............

I know this has been asked and answered a hundred times. Being the total puter dumbazz that I am I'm gonna ask again. I even pulled up a tutorial by "80sRule". I can't even find the main page he's talking about I'm tellin ya, I am dumber'n box a rocks when it comes to puters. `till I retired last year I used em on a daily basis for close to 30 years, for job oriented work, but.....
I finally went out and took some nice pictures of my vert. I've moved them to Photobucket, cropped em, sized em and put them in an album. Don't know how the he__ I figured that out by myself
What I'd like to do is use one of them for an Avitar and put the others in my CF place, maybe post them on the forum.
In really, really...., REALLY layman's terms can someone please tell me how to accomplish this. To top all this off, I've got DIAL UP. I've been messin with this for two whole days now and I'm about to lose it.

On your photobucket page, place your cursor in the box that says "IMG code" (yellow in the pic below) That text will be copied. In a window here, hold down the Ctrl key and hit the v key. That text will be pasted. Then hit the preview or submit button and you should be able to see the picture.

Well it's DARN simple my friend. Being a youngin whos into this, technology :P I sorta know how to do this...to upload your pics from photobucket:
Upload your pics (which I assume youve done)
Now, in the picture homepage (the one that appears directly after you login) you will see your collection.
Find your desired picture, then underneath it are the words:

EMAIL
DIRECT LINK
HTML
IMG CODE

Click the text within the box to the right of IMG CODE.

You now have that copied, and simply paste into your post to share them here like so

Go to photobucket and press the IMG code, the last line under photo, then go to where you want to post t and press ctrl key and v key at same time. And it will put all the information where that picture is.

Go to the main menu page and scroll down to the Help Forum. Every question that's ever been asked/answered about posting images can probably be found there...
