FYI: How To Post Photos

There have been a lot of posts with just a web address that takes you to a personal photo sharing site of late. Thought it would be a good time to send out a refresher on how to post photos directly to the forum to simplify things for posters and responders alike...

Setup:

1) Go to photobucket.com and open a free account.

2) Follow their instructions for uploading your pics to their site.

Now your pics are ready for posting on sites like GW!

Posting pics in a GW message:

1) Begin the written portion of your posting on GW.

2) When you are ready to add your pics, simply open a new browser window and log into your photobucket account.

3) Go to 'My Album' & copy the 'HTML Code' underneath the photo you wish to add to your GW post.

4) Toggle back to the browser window with your GW posting, place the cursor where you want to pic to appear, right click and select 'paste'.

Your pics will appear in the preview so you can ensure they appear properly before the final submission.(I know, this looks like a lot of potentially confusing steps, but trust me, once you copy the pics into your posts once or twice it's a piece of cake!)

Hope this helps!
