How do I do this? I have some pictures stored in 'My Pictures' on my computer and cant get them to post here into threads. I finally learned how to make email attachments though and have emailed some of them to a few people. I AM learning some stuff.

I would create an account at photobucket.com (free) and then you can upload the pics off your computer onto that site.

Then copy the url. listed under the picture once it's uploaded on photobucket. When replying or posting, hit the "insert image" button and paste the url. and the pic should show up in your post.

smiggs is right... photobucket is the easiest way to go. other than that, you'll have to load them to your gallery and post from there as far as i know.

If you have ford related pictures, go create a gallery and you can direct people to your gallery. Its easy to do, just head into your user cp. If you need more help with it, post it, and someone will be able to help ya more. Its what it is there for! Otherwise photobucket, or a similiar site, will work great for ya.

Sounds like too much effort for me right now - took some computer classes and have 'computer overload'. Here is some footage of a few of our classes!

We are getting too busy - maybe next winter???

Awesome I will do it right away - I have some pics of my Mustang that were taken with my phone camera - a bit fuzzy but not bad.
They can be fun/frustrating. I have been taking some night classes and have made pretty good progress for an old codger like me! More usage and practice = better abilities for sure.

I learned lots at the classes. Took a level 1 intro, a level 2 intro, word, excel, internet and email, and powerpoint classes. The digital photography class was cancelled.

Just go to the advanced post and then scroll down to manage attachments and then just load pic up from your folder on your computor. If you use the high resolution on your camera setting the file might be to large to load. For pics of my trucks and stuff I always use the lowest resolution setting and then I can load 4 or 5 pics a post if I want. I hope this helps you out.

I just edit my pictures with paint. My camera takes pretty good quality pictures, and with paint you can quickly and effortlessly resize them to fit in here. If anyone is interested in it, let me know and Ill walk ya through it.
