Have you set up an account on photobucket.com? If not, you first need to set up an account--which is free. Then you have to upload your pictures onto photobucket.com from your hard drive. Once you've done this you will have thumbnail pictures in your photobucket account. To post a pic on this website or other websites move your curser arrow over the top of one of these thumbnails, doing so three lines of verbage appears below your thumbnail pic: Email & IM, HTML Code and IMG Code, then left click on IMG Code, doing so will hi-lite in blue a code immediately to the right of the verbage IMG Code, right click on this hi-lited blue code, a pop up box will appear, then left click "copy". After you've done this go to the thread you'd like to post the image in and left click on "post a reply". In the body of the box where you're posting your reply type whatever you'd like to say in terms of a description, then hit "enter" twice on your computer's keyboard, this will get you down two lines, then right click your mouse, a pop up box will appear, then left click "paste" and "voila" a code will appear. Then scoll down and left click "preview" and you will see your image. If everything looks copestetic left click submit and you have posted successfully. (If you want to attach multipe pics in one post it makes it easier to have both sites, photobucket.com and the site you're posting in open at the same time.)

I might suggest you print this to refer to these instructions until you become familiar with the process. Once you get it, your enjoyment and the enjoyment of others of these forums will grow exponentially---a win/win for everyone!
