Attaching pictures to post or reply
« on: May 12, 2010, 05:04:11 PM »
Can any one direct me to a prior post/posts or 'help' in how to attach pictures to a new post or reply. I did some searching, but couldn't find the exact 'how to do'.  Thank you in advance. Note: I'm partially computor 'stupid', my grandkids can get around one better than I can. ;D >:( ??? :'(

Maybe you should ask the grandkids! ;D ;D ;D

I went through that within the last two weeks and got about as much help as you are getting.  Got some sympathy from a self-styled "luddite", but no clues.

I finally realized that if you make a reduced size copy and save it in your pictures you can then follow the "additional options" button when you are drafting your post.  I used 25% of the normal size. (in PICASA, Right click on image; Edit;  Image; Resize;  change size from 100% to 25%; save as "small" - if you don't "save as"- with some additional description you will end up with only one copy, but "resized")

When you draft your post/reply;
-Additional options
-browse
-select the reduced photo you wish to post.
-"Open" will then attach it to your post.

This worked for me, but there may be better ways!
