Greg, I looked back and found this post on adding pictures from John Monroe. It works, I've done it. I'd like to see that fish.

Sorry I didn't get this posted sooner but I couldn't find this area. PictureStage .com

I will be glad to help you post pictures on the web. I'm no great whiz at this so if you need more information just let me know. I use a free host that you uplink (send) your pictures to from your files of pictures you have in your computer. PictureStage.com

Just click on the blue link and it will take you to it. You sign up with them and then you can start picture albums of different kinds. Like Family, Boats, Ponds or what ever you want. It will take a little playing around with it to get use to. But once you have your pictures in an album and you want to put it on a bulletin board, CLICK on the picture to enlarge it. Then to the left of the picture you will see several things you can do. At the bottom you will see LINK TO AN AUCTION--CLICK on that and the http code for your picture will come up in a box. Then you will see HIGH LIGHT THE TEXT--click on that and the text box will turn blue. Another way to highlight anything is to hold down your left mouse button and drag it across anything you want to highlight and it will turn BLUE. Next is my own way of capturing a blue highlighted area. I think it is called Copy & Paste. It is one of the most useful things you can use on your computer. This is what I do while the area is highlighted blue. ( press the computers keys together--Ctri+C and this will capture the blue highlighted area. Now, in this case go to Pond Boss bulletin board, Click on post reply. You will then see below the bottom of you reply screen several buttons to click on. Click on the one that says IMAGE. A screen will come up that starts with http. Delete this, because your picture address will already have a http and two will not let the picture work. Now make sure you mouse marker is flashing where you deleted the http (now press the two keys at the same time --Ctri+V and you picture address will appear on your reply screen. Just ignore it and write in your message as you usually do. Then hit Post Message and everything should appear including your picture. This isn't as bad as it may sound and just takes some getting use to.
John
