Tom, I too, had the plague of little red crosses in a box when attempting to post photos. I felt like a dummy having to ask others to post my pictures.

I was using my up-to-date computer with all the bells and whistles security features, so I experimented with my old laptop and had no problem, so must have been a firewall problem � or something.

Not wanting to go to that much trouble, I tried again to post pictures on my �new� computer, and with some trial and error I was able to post.

The change I made that allowed me to escape the dreaded X boxes was after I �cut and pasted� from photo bucket, I turned off the open photo bucket window, making sure my pictures had been transferred to PB box.

I then added text, viewed �preview post� to make sure it was OK � and like magic my pictures were posted on the forum.

By the way, pics can easily be re-sized by downloading on Outlook Express � �show more options� � 640x480 works for me

A handy program for resizing that I use is PIXresizer http://bluefive.pair.com/pixresizer.htm
Free download.

Hope this helps.
