It seems that some people are having trouble going through all the steps to post pictures. Here is a cheat sheet I made that may be helpful to people trying to figure out how to post pictures. I used only one Photo Hosting Site and I want to make it clear that I don't have any stock so-to-speak in the site.

This is for Hot Linking (I think it's called that) and all pictures should be sized.

Go to www.photobucket.com
Follow the instructions and set up a photo album
Open the album
Figure out which picture you want to use
Click IMG (bottom choice) under picture
Click Edit (at very top of computer screen)
Click Copy (when Edit opens)
Go to Forum
Post Message
Click Edit (at very top of computer screen)
Click Paste (when Edit opens)
Click Preview Message
Verify post is as you want it
Click Submitt

That's it!!!!

You can go back and forth between the Forum and Photobucket by using the back and forward buttons.
You also post multiple pictures using this method too.

It's a free service but you may (probably should) make a small donation to help the guy out that runs the site.

The good thing about this site is that when you select the IMG line, you don't have to add/delete anything.
It's all done for you. I am by no means a computer weenie and if it works for me it will work for you.

You can actually do the Paste step at the beginning, middle, end, or wherever you want to put the picture.

You can practice by going to the Test section of the Forum, http://mytractorforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=8.

There it is all by itself. All anyone has to do now is just copy and paste and then run a copy off.

I know the instructions may seem simplistic but for guys like me that aren't computer literate, it helps to get all the steps.

Here's another addition from our Guru Ed. It's a link to a post he made with a chart for resizing pictures.
