How do I include a photo in a post?

Please have mercy on a Luddite.

Thanks, Marshall.

Click on the 'insert image' symbol in the header (yellow square with an image in it) and a window pops up that allows you to insert a web address, ergo it must be archived somewhere like Flickr, Photobucket, etc.:

Sign up with Photobucket, or some other online picture hosting website. Then you can click on the picture icon in the message editor here, it'll ask you for the picture url ..... paste it in. All the button does is put image tages around it "[img] & [/img]". Photobucket will also give you the url with image tags that you can cut and paste into your message, too..... that is what I normally do.

Thanks guys,

I have been trying to use the Manage Attachments option of uploading an image from a file in my computer. All seems to go well and the uploading commences. After some time I get an Internal Server Error notice and that is the end of that process.

I'll try posting to an account as you do.

Thanks again, Marshall.

Huh! You're one up on me, I didn't think to use an attachment. Here's one off my computer, it uploaded ~instantly:

Solved my problem. I thought the Manage Uploads process converted image file size to that shown in the size table - wrong. I used Irfanview to reduce the file to an acceptable size and the upload worked just fine.

For some reason, that looks like Tulsa, Oklahoma...

Strange....
