Then when you're ready to post it, click on the paperclip. I think it's self-explanatory from there if you have moderate experience.



As for finding pics, go to google.com & click images. Then type in what you're looking for. You'll have more than you can handle.



Happy hunting! :-6

After you down load them to your PC you can use tinypic.com to upload (browse your pc to where the picture is at) them, then click host picture it will give the that you just copy into your post and bingo you have a picture..

EXAMPLE OF ONE I UPLOADED: you put on the end and bingo a picture what goes in the middle is right there for you when you up load it look like this http://tinypic.com/jhxqg.jpg...good luck..;)

I use IrfanView to resize my pics. It's a free program and simple to use.

Thanks all of you, this really helps me out. I will start practicing and see if I can do it by tomorrow. When I sold stuff on ebay, I used Irfanview, but when I downloaded again a few days ago I had trouble with it. I guess I am just out of practice.

Polycarp, my 5th grade teacher made me write 100 times "Tact is the art of saying and doing the right thing at the right time." I will never forget it. I am 54 now and still remember it. Can't remember why I got in trouble and had to write it, but I remeber the words. lmao:wah:
