I just started to post on the forum and would like to know how the larger photos are posted?

Thanks Carl

Through an image hosting site like PhotoBucket.

To give a little more detail on BAJJERFAN's suggestion, do this...

If you don't already have a Photobucket account, go to
Photobucket.com and create an account (it's free).

Upload your photo there. Underneath the photo they
will give you four choices of how to copy the image to
your clipboard. The fourth one is "IMG Code". Click on
this and either "Right Click/Copy" or, at the top of your
windows page, "Edit/Copy" and it save it to your clipboard.
Come back to the Forum and paste it into field of the
message by either "Right Click/Paste", or "Edit/Paste.
(You could also use the keyboard and use "Ctrl/C" to
copy and "Ctrl/V" to paste.)

Bingo, you have your image in the forum.

Hope this helps!!

Most ISPs have their own web hosting. You may be able to upload files to your account without using an outside service, which may limit the number of hits, etc. For example, I have Comcast. They allot me 1 GB of web storage. That's a lot of coin pics!

ImageShack or Photobucket will let you upload images as large as 1 mb, but when you post those here, they will be incredibly large and not well liked by dialuppers. you might want to shrink them using an image processing tool like Irfanview which is free. I have grown to like ImageCave but the free storage is limited to 10mb.

This is easy to do….

1. Print your photo full size.
2. Fold it, printed side out, until it is about 4-inches square.
3. Open the dual purpose cup holder on your computer.
4. Insert the folder photo and push the little door closed.
5. Think very hard about where you want to send the photo, then press “Enter.”

Done – or maybe “half baked” is a better term.
