Hi

This has probably been asked a thousand times, but I can't find how to post a picture straight from my computer, without a photo hosting site, to put in a forum reply.

Im not very technically minded, so if someone could explain it in very simple language I would be very grateful :D

Thanks

    http://tinypic.com/ - upload your photo here - then it will give you the code to use to post it. change the IMG to lower case

    Have you tried to drag and drop it? They've really simplified it with the update from the Fall. You don't need a hosting site anymore... least I haven't ...check out the options above the reply box. :)

    Click the icon on the reply box that looks like a piece of paper with the corner folded down... it'll give you a browse option and then you find what you're looking for in your files and pop it in the box. Know what I mean jelly bean? ;)

    It's newer from the update... much easier than doing the host site jazz. :)
