[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by csxguy Does anyone know how to post a picture in a post??? [/quote] Open two browsers. One opened to the Forums "POST NEW REPLY" page and one for the web host. First you need a host for your photos. I use Ripway Web Hosting. There are limitations but It's free. [url]http://www.ripway.com/index.asp[/url] Second, on the Forums "POST NEW REPLY" page, find the "INSERT IMAGE" icon on the format icons. Click on it and you will see [ img] [/img] Once you have the photo uploaded on the Ripway site and you are on the "MY FILES" page, look at the URL: for that photo and copy and paste it between the brackts [img ]paste here[/img] on the "POST NEW REPLY" page. Click on the "PREVIEW" button and a preview window will pop up. If you did it correctly, you will see your photo. p.s. Keep the photos on the small side about 25-50k. In the above text, I put a space between the [ and the img so you could see the code. If I didn't all you would see is a box with an X in it
