lasvegasteddy

hi,
i'm new here and even a beginner collector after looking at what some here acquire.my puter skills are very basic.when i try to load a picture a screen pops up that says...url?i'd love to post some coins too here for sake of contributing but need someone willing to treat me like a 3 year old that i am on computers.sincerely ted

The best way is to put the pictures on a server on the internet to which you have access. For example, I put this picture up on Saturday:

http://www.server-alert.com/date.JPG

You have to have a server on which you may put pictures. Once you have put the pictures up, you use the photo icon in the message toolbar to put in the web address of the photo, as I just put up an example.

Good luck and welcome.

It looks like the top bar of the 7 may be showing on the left top of the 8.

Or I could be seeing things again....

Hard to tell from the picture but I don't see any of the 17/8 S diagnostics from the picture supplied.
I don't think it is an overdate.

First upload your photo/scan to photobucket.com then copy the url/addy..it will look something like this.
http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i250/krugerman/struckthrustring.jpg

Then on this forum use the new topic/reply option depending on which you are doing and then choose the picture button..


Then enter the url/addy in the box that pops up then hit ok.


Type any message you wanted to include.. Now just hit the post message or reply to thread button and you are done..
I am not the best at giving instructions but hope this helps.
