How do you post pictures in the message. I used attachments and it shows up as a link. If i click on insert image , it asks for a URL of image. Do i need to post the image on a website first?

First load the attachments, then after loading right click on each attachment, copy shortcut, then click on the little box with a mountain in it. Another window will pop up where you will paste the shortcut, and then the pic will appear.

Like this. Of course you may want to size it down some but I am proud of this rear end

I've tried that before and it didn't work for me.
The attached links do not end in jpg or gif....
I'll play some more.

I only see a red X from Chad.

Bill do you see it now?

ihochad · 01-24-2007, 09:49 AM

Like this?

Now does that mean that everytime I want to show the above pic > I have to re-upload it to your server? Gonna require a lot of storage space, on your end, if that is the case.

Is the plan to eventually have uploaded pics on the website for quick linking (thru Phot Post or some such) so we don't have to continually upload the same pics for 'new' posts?

Just asking as I'm on dialup & it takes awhile to upload a pic.

I realize this is a work in progress.

Odd > why is it showing in the post AND as an attachment? Least that is what I see in the 'Preview" of the post. Kinda redundant to have it show up twice, don't ya think?
