Welcome! If you've got digital photos I can help. I'll PM you. First thing is to use some software probably already bundled in your computer to reduce them to 600 X 800 pixels. Remember to do 'save as' -- or else you'll wipe out the original high resolution photo downloaded from your camera. Stand by and I'll be in touch.

I always make a copy first, so I don't have an accident. The older I get, the easier those accidents get...

Troy -- Somebody must have seen this thread because I got a PM from them.

Here are the basics:

Most people post 400 x 600 pics, though 600 x 800 is possible. Anything larger than that is too big for the Forums software to handle and it will not post.

If you have an original photo file, resize it and click 'Save', your original photo file will be overwritten and destroyed. Here is a better way. After resizing you should click 'Save As' from the File menu at top left of your browser -- give the pic a descriptive name and save it to the desktop location (I usually toss from there after posting). So have one or more pics ready before trying to post.

It is your choice to start a new thread or just reply in an existing thread. Type in your message. Then there is a 'Manage Attachments' button below the entry window -- click that. A small window will open. Click the top 'Browse' button, find your desktop and select the picture you want to add to your post. If you want to add another pic, click the 2nd browse button. And so on. Then click 'Upload.' Depending on your internet connection it will take a few seconds or a minute or more, then show your uploaded photo filenames on a 'Current Attachments' line. You can close the small window once you see that.

Back at the main post entry window you can see your attachment names if you scroll toward the bottom. You're good to go! Click 'Submit Reply' once and hope everything works. The window won't react right away -- be patient. Let me know if I'm not clear or it didn't happen that way.

Some folks have had trouble adding more than 3 or 4 pics to a single post. If you have more I'd finish posting extras in an additional post.
