Due to restricted space would all members use on-line photo storage to upload images.
A photo storage account like (Photobucket) is an excellent place to start.

Click http://photobucket.com/ and sign up for a 'free account'.

Once you have registered and activated your account on photobucket, please carry on reading...

Quick Tutorial of Photobucket*

If you are not already signed in, then do so.

*You will see 'Add Pictures' at the top , just below this there is a 'Browse' button, click on this.

*A new window will appear, it will show you files on your computer, now you need to have remembered where you saved the chosen image you wish to display as the attachment.

*When you've located the file, double click on it, which will automatically close the new window. You should now see some writing in the box to the right of the 'Browse' button. (If not repeat earlier stages)

*Then click 'Submit' allow the page to reload, DO NOT TOUCH the window ie. refreshing it or clicking on anything else, as it will interfere with the uploading of the image.

*If you scroll down you will now see the image you have uploaded. It will also come up with three lines of info: URL/Tag/Img. We want the URL info .

*Highlight all that is in the URL box, right click the selection and then 'copy'.
(you will need the URL address)

Applying your chosen attachment (picture)

*When you are replying to a post, type whatever you need until you know when you would like to place the attachment in.

*Just above the box that you are typing in there are a selection of little buttons, you need to click on the 'img' button.

*It will automatically bring up a 'new' little window . There is a box where you are to paste the URL address you have obtained from uploading the attachment/picture to photobucket.

*MAKE SURE that the box you paste the URL address into is completely clear before hand.

*Then click 'ok'

*The 'code' for the image/attachment will appear in the main window box where you were typing your reply, it will begin with '[img]'

*Once you have finished typing the remainder of your reply/post, if you wish to make sure it has worked, click 'Preview Post' which you'll find lower down the page. You should see that it has worked.

*If it hasnt , repeat making sure you have covered all the stages above

Please keep your photographs to under 100kbs,
