Ed, when you're writing your message in the text box you'll notice at the lower left hand side of that box there is a button it will say attachments. Click on that. Ok with me so far? I knew you would be. :)

Now, you'll see another box come up and you'll see two buttoms around the top that will say Browse and Add you'll want to click on browse. Now just locate the picture located on your computer click on it to highlight it then click open.

you'll notice it's now in the attachments text box. click Add and you'll see it move to the currently attached text box. now click OK This will take you back to where you were posting your message. you'll notice there you'll have the option to have the picture within your post or as a link.

It's getting late but I'll be working in my office all day tomorrow if you need some more help I'll be more than happy to walk you through it.

    You can't be any dumber than me when it comes to these computers so here goes. After you type your post, look down to the attachments button then push it. This should show you all the picture files. When you find the one you want to post click on it, then press add attachment, then push the post button

    It should be simple...
    • You take a picture, then transfer it into your computer.
    • Resize the picture, if needed, using a package like Irfanview or iPhoto. Resize the picture so that it is no wider than 500 pixels, so it fits well. Save it as a JPG to eventually conserve Dans disk space.
    • Note the name of the resized picture and where it is located (My Pictures/boiler123.jpg, for example)
    • Fire up your web browser, go to the wall, reply to a thread or start a new one
    • When the browser is done, you'll note the subject field, the message field, and the Attachments button at the bottom. Type your message, then click on Attachments to add your picture files to the message.

      • Clicking on Attachments opens a new browser window in which you need to click on the Choose File button to select your first image file. Find it on your hard drive, then click Add.
      • The browser should then upload the picture to Dans server. Repeat as necessary, then press OK. This closes the Attachments window and brings you back to your typed message.
    • You can choose to show up to one picture as part of your message. Select the most relevant one, then check off the check mark next to it.
    • Now select Post and you should be done.
    Does that make sense? I'll be happy to post screenshots, if you like.

    only her arm came out. What is she holding, a sheep dog?
