This is under the wrong board again. Crap.
@SallyChoasAura See below for simple picture posting instructions that I use all the time with success.
****These are the instructions for you to follow so you can include pictures in your postings and replies on the Forums... and also you can post them on your Private Messages: (note, you can not send a Private Message until you have posted on the forums 15 times)
These instructions are for the picture posting site "imgur.com" ... no signup or membership is needed but if you wish to have later control of your photos there you can sign up for a free account.
FIRST OFF: It is best to use a desktop or Laptop computer because phones and pads usually do not have the button functions to do what is needed.
Step 1: Go to Imgur.com (you do not have to sign up as a member there)
Step 2: Click "New Post"
Step 3: Click "Upload Images"
Step 4: Drag picture from your computer to Imgur download box, or copy and paste, or enter URL
Step 5: Put your curser on the upper/right of your downloaded photo on Imgur
Step 6: Go to the "down arrow" and then select "Get Share Links"
Step 7: COPY: "BBCode(forums)
Step 8 PASTE: To the body of your message/posting/reply
That should do it.... BUT again be aware of the pixel size of your photo..
..... keep it under control and not much over 1200 W x 900 H.... if you are confused about that detail and how to do it then don't worry because when you post a photo on a PM or on the Forums will automatically be reduced. Trying to upload or post a super large photo on Imgur and then download it on the Forums will take longer on a slower connection.
Good luck... and let me know if you have any questions or problems.
Now, I am looking forward to seeing all kinds of your pictures.... and if you don't want to post a picture on the Forums you could always send and include pics on a PM, but obviously only post pictures as you feel comfortable doing it.
Please let me know if you have any trouble with my instructions and please reply if you are able to post pictures.
Hugs and happy posting!
