I know some poeple can't seem to upload photos as attachments, but would still like to be able to post photos, so I thought I would put instructions for how to post photos by hosting them somewhere else. One site I know that allows you to do this is www.photobucket.com
1. You need to register at a site that allows you to use it to host pictures. (I use www.photobucket.com)
2. Upload your photos to the site you chose to use.
3. After you upload your photos onto photobucket, you will see three things under your picture, URL, Tag , and IMG.
4. I personally use the url and it works for me. You just copy and paste the info from the box labled "URL"
You just copy or paste that http: line into your message and the photo should show up in your post wherever you put that line in at.
Here is a sample photo that I am using photobucket to host (my cat is the lucky subject)
http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y257/searchdog/littleman.jpg
(If the photo is no longer showing up it is because I have deleted it from my photobucket account)
Hope that helps someone, and if anyone has any info to add or any corrections to make to what I said please feel free to do so, you won't hurt my feelings at all.
