Maybe this will help?
First of all, you need to have the pic(s) you want to post on Pond Boss saved on your computer somewhere. Then...
1. Set up a free account at Photobucket.com if you have not already. You will need to come up with a user name and password to use every time you go to the Photobucket.com page.
2. Once that is done, and you have logged into Photobucket.com, click "Browse" on the Photobucket.com page to access the pics that are on YOUR computer.
3. Afer some scrolling, when you see the pic you want to post on Pond Boss, click on it and then click "Submit" on Photobucket.com.
4. Wait for it to download to appear on the Photobucket.com site a little lower on the page.
5. Notice the the addresses under the photo? URL, TAG, IMG? You want to point your mouse at the one that says IMG. Once it's highlighted push the control button and 'C' at the same time on your keyboard.
6. You are now ready to start a new thread on Pond Boss or post your pic as a "Reply" as you would if you were reponding to someone's thread. So either start a new thread or click "Reply" on Pond Boss. You will end up with a box to post your pic(s) just like if you were normally replying.
7.) Find the button that says "Image" and click on it. See the box that appeared in the upper left corner that says "Explorer User Prompt"? See the line that starts with
http://? You want to push the control key and the 'V' key at the same time now on your keyboard and the Image address should appear on that line. Then click O.K.
7.) You should now see the address appear in the reply box or box where you are starting a new thread. (no picture yet) Get rid of the extra imgs on each side and then click "Preview Post."
Important: You don't want any duplications on each side of the address. Just an Img on each end and then the Image address.
If you pic appears the way you want it to, go back and click "Add Reply" and you should be all set.
Or you can skip "Preview Post" and just click "Add Reply." If it's not the way you want it click the Edit/Delete image (paper and pencil) and come back and change things.
BTW, you can add text anywhere you want in the box with your image address as long as it's not connected to your image address.
This is not as complicated as you think. Once you get the hang of it, it comes intuitively
