I only know, at this point, how to do it in the mods section. But I did discover that my cell phone picts were too large and I had to find an app to reduce the file size before I could upload them. :tat26:

We don't host pictures on this site, which is how we keep it free for users

Please upload your pictures to one of many free photo storage sites, then link to them from your post.

Example here for using tiny url service


1) Go to http://www.tinypic.com

2) Click "Choose file" and pick your image from your computer.

3) Click "Upload Now"

4) Type in the answer to the advertising question that pays for the tinypic service.

5) When your image completes its upload, click the box that says "IMG Code for Forums" so that the line turns black, and press CTRL+C (or Command-C on a Macintosh) to copy the line.

6) Come back to your forum post here, and press CTRL+V (or Command+V on a Macintosh) to past in the IMG code.

Hey Mike,

If you want me to post the photos for you, email them to me at
MacSailor70 at gmail.com

I'll upload them to a host and put them in the Mac70 thread.
