    Hi, I'm Rusty, and I'm a techno moron...

    Guys, I've always been proud to be known as old school, old fashioned, etc.....But, this not being able to figure out how to post pictures is bout to drive me crazy !!! I have a photo album full of my down-loaded sd cards, but cannot figure out how to put one on here for the life of me. I've tried the FAQ, attachments, bla bla, but still no luck. Any help is extremely appreciated. And please, keep it plain, redneck, non computer lingo if you can I can see a lot of baby talk, cave man, and who knows what comin my way. Oh well, bring it on. God Bless, Rusty

        Hi, I'm Rusty, and I'm a techno moron...

        Click on Go Advanced at the bottom of the screen








        Click on the paper clip and the manage attachments window should pull up.













        In the manage attachments window click the first "Choose File" or "Browse"








        Chose "photo library"

        Click on picture you want to use.



        Click upload



        Click red X in top right corner to close the manage attachments window.



        Click submit reply



        Voila!!

          This is the method I use, but be warned, if your picture is bigger than 640x480, you will need to resize it down to that. Otherwise, you will not be able to load the pic.

            Beat me to it.
            Also at the bottom of the attachments page it shows how big different files have to be.

                Smart, that is good info right there! I coulda made it work, but after the "paper clip", my screen has no "browse" in bold, only "choose file" in very faint writing. And the saga continues, sorry guys...God Bless, Rusty

                  Like i said above, it can be Browse or Choose file depending on mobile or computer. .....you are fine.. Click Choose file if that is what comes up.

                        Here's an alternative.

                        Go to www.photobucket.com and open a free account. Create a folder called 2015 and upload the pictures to that folder that you want to have on TBH. There will be a link you can post. I find I have to put the html image notations of [img} and [/img} before and after the link. You need to substitute the "]" for the "}" I wrote-otherwise they would have designated an image.

                          I am not the most tech savy guy, but even I figured out how to use Paint to resize my pictures so that I can post. May not be the best way or quickest but it works for me.

                            Paint.net is what I use every day to draw my geologic maps. It's a great tool and not real hard to learn. For what it's worth I size my pictures to 750x750 or less and that works here.

                              Jason, you are way more patient than me, after I figured it out its easy but I always used photobucket in the past, thanks for the lesson.
