How to post picture in message?

[JeffinNYC]

Can anyone help with how do I put my pic in one of these messages?

I tried but when I click on "attachment" a box opens that says something about enter text to be formatted.

Thanks

I think you have to have a website to upload it to and then you have to link it to this web site by using the image icon.

Austlyn is right. Some free ones that are easy to use are photobucket, imageshack, and shutterfly. I like photobucket because you can resize and it provides the link you need to post pics on forums and other webspaces.

Most pictures do have to be hosted off site. To get them in a post click on the "Insert Image" icon in the tool bar when you're posting above the box where you're typing. It looks like this A window will pop up asking for the URL of the image. If you don't know the URL you can right click on an image and select "properties" and then copy the entire URL address and paste it into the URL request box.

Did that help or make it more confusing? Lol! Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. Just let me know.

We have a place to host pictures right here at ADBB....see "ADBB Gallery" in the top menu bar.
