Re: Help with uploading Pictures
I started a gallery here on this site that I add photos to and then it is as simple as copy and paste from the gallery.
Also look for other threads from Kurt specifically covering this as he runs this site.

Re: Help with uploading Pictures
If you want to upload them to the albums, to start, make sure they are the right size. If you go the the photo page and click the upload button, a box will pop up. On that box there is a link that shows the extensions allowed (eg: .bmp, .jpg, .gif, etc...) if you click on it. It also shows the max size allowed. If you adhere to that, it's as easy as clicking the browse button and choosing the file from your computer. Once they are up you will see a line of code you can paste into your message that will show the picture.
If you want to embed a picture that is on another website, you can usually right click on the pic and select properties. From there you can see the web path to that pic. Copy that and paste it in between [img] and [/img], and the pic will pop up in the message like this...
The path for that picture is http://boortz.com/images/bag_of_groceries.jpg inserted between the two image tags above with no spaces.
Somebody posted a link a while back to a utililty that will resize pictures simply by right clicking on the file and selecting the option. I'll look for it in a search...
Hope this helps...

Yes, and a tech geek with a heart. I think I owe you some rep from my little ipod transfer experience.

Re: Help with uploading Pictures
Can I PM a picture to someone?
Basically I have a photo I need to send to a sowaller - should I just email them?

Try as I might I can't figure out if you can. It doesn't appear doable unless you have the photo on another website and insert the image in the message. You could do that, and they could right click on the pic and save it...
