Posting Photos

[bajasurf]

I have a simple and most likely a question has has been asked and answered in the past. How do I attach photos that are viewable within my posting rather than as an "attachment" that requires clicking on that "attachment" to view the downloaded photos? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Use a photo hosting website like Photobucket, Flickr, Picassa, Webshots, etc. You upload your images to their site and they provide you with a link to your photo.

On ExPo, simply paste that link into the 'Insert image' icon in the reply window (looks like a little postcard on the toolbar) and that's it.

Keep in mind the size of the photo. Most photos need to be around 800x600 or less, or else you have to scroll the screen to the right to see the entire image. Unless you have a jumbo sized monitor...

Not 1989 anymore KC, have you bought anything larger than your 14" monitor yet?
