Hi Sasha,
If you scroll down to the bottom of your post you will see a box marked "Additional options" just asThe Ferry Man says. If you click on this you can then chose one of your pictures from your files and add it there. If you click on "Browse" you will see your own documents there from which you can chose a picture. You will note that there is a limit to A) the size of the picture and B) the number of pictures or files you can add to one post, which is 5. Try it and see. It is very straightforward and easy to do.

Angus.

Ephotospace is even better, way less ads than Photobucket, and I know people who have gotten viruses from Photobucket.

Hi sasha,I find what Traddles and TFM describe are the easiest for me.

But the Pics aren't as big....


I personally use Windows Live Skydrive (http://www.skydrive.live.com)

It's got 25GB of space to upload pretty much whatever I like, for free.

Although I use tinypic for my sigs, as the URLs in Skydrive are too long...

Hi McGherkin,
All you need to do is click on the small picture and it then shows up full size. As the Meercat says:- "Seemple".

You must remember that I am old and decrepit. But here is an example. If you click on the picture it grows by magic. :evil:
