Can "Flickr" be used to post photos. Is "Photobucket" more user friendly.Could someone provide a tutorial? You computer "literates" don't know how lucky you are.
Thanks, Jim

We have many members and users who post pix often. Can one of you please help out the Association by doing a picture posting writeup that can become a sticky? Thank you!

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 the hard drive on your computer. 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 one of these thumbnails and a box with a little gear wheel icon in the upper right corner will appear, moving your cursor arrow over the gear wheel a pop up box will appear, left click on "Get Links", doing so three lines of verbage appears in a pop up box: Email & IM, HTML Code and IMG Code, then left click on IMG Code, doing so the word "copied" will briefly appear, when it does 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 scroll down and left click "preview" and you will see your image. If everything looks copasetic left click submit and you have posted successfully. (If you want to attach multiple 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!
