open an account at a photo hosting site.  I use photobucket.  Upload the photos to this site (or any site you choose).  Under the photos will be options of codes for posting.  copy the IMG code, and paste it into your post here.  Pictures!

thank you Shody for the simplified explanation.
But it is VERY important for people on this forum who are cursed with slow dialup that all photos be loaded within the specified guidelines on our forum.

Do you fan the flames, try to douse them, flee from the heat, watch as the house burns, or use the
cell-phone camera to privately send it to others?

Some are blessed with HIGH SPEED - photos upload almost instantly.   :wave
Some members have the acursed DIAL UP INTERNET connection.   :fart
This connection can take  ::) LIKE FOREVER ::) to load up on the forum.   :'(
The larger the photo file the longer it takes for DIALUP members to see.   :o

Besides this, screen width can also cause problems viewing a photo...even I have to use the up/down and side/to side arrows to see some of the photos that are loaded.
