A link to Instructions can be found on the first page of the "Sunday Photo Fun" threads. It is located at the bottom of Spankybird's first post for that thread.

I just posted my first photo today. Don't let my photo scare you, I did not take it with enough pixels. Tom's instructions are great. Good luck. [tup]

dlagrua - it seems that your photo host does not like sharing your pics. Try shutterfly.com, its free.

Tom is right.
dlagrua, your hosting service will not let you you share photos. Here is your photo posted to Shutterfly.


I have used Shutterfly to order prints and even make a special coffee cup and I couldn't have had a better photo hosting service. [:)] AND IT'S FREE.

ha - another host that won't allow sharing. [:(], You can see it as long as you are log onto your host site, but we can't see it. [V]

Once you log off your host site, you won't be able to see it either. [:0]

Try Shutterfly [^]

Tom do you remember how Hewlett Packard's Hosting Site would also trick people to thinking the photo was posted when it was not.

Buckeye - it's the same thing, you can see it if you are log on to the site, but no one else can see it and once you log off the site, you can't see it either.

So to put pictures in you have to go to update profile and put them in signature then delete them after you show them or is there a better way just to show them once and not have them on every posting you send?
