I see a few comments where peeps are having probs posting pics so thought I would add these insructions I have on my forum. If you don't want them or already have them somewhere I haven't yet found please delete this thread ;)

There are different ways to add pics but I always use Photobucket.com for forum pics, this How 2 explains how to post pictures using Photobucket.

Step 1: Register for a Photobucket Account
Got http://photobucket.com/ and Join
Once your account is set up you can add pictures you want to use on the Internet


Step 2: Upload pictures to Photobucket
Log in to your account
If you are adding a single picture click Upload
If you want to add more than one picture use the Bulk Upload option, (I still click the 'Old Uploader')

(http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q122/nabsim/Help/uploader.jpg)

Whichever option you choose click the Browse button and find the picture on YOUR COMPUTER
For each additional picture click the next Browse button down and do the same again
When you have selected what you want click the Upload button
Wait for the upload to finish then you are ready to post pictures on the net


Step 3: Add your picture(s) to a forum post
In your photobucket account find the picture you want to use
Hover the mouse/cursor over the picture and you will see the links expand
The link you need is the one highlighted in blue in the picture below, IMG Code.
When you click in the IMG Code it should copy the link but for you
Got to the forum reply you are doing, right mouse click and select Paste.
Thats it, all done. Good luck ;)

Once you have images in your Photobucket account you can use them anywhere on the Internet or just as handy storage.
Please remember, if you delete or move an image in your Photobucket account it will no longer appear in any posts. You may find it useful to create different folder in your Photobucket account that describes where you use them, (these images are in a Help folder in my account).

Thanks for that.  :)
People do seem to have trouble understanding the photo posting concept, so hopefully this alternative will help.

i think if you are using a digital camera or the digital camera on your phone it is easy to just set the pic size on your camera before you take your pics 640x480 should be OK, load them to your computer, save to my pics in your documents, when you want to post them on a thread click on additional options,click on browse, my pics will automatically open click the pic you want then click open, click post, job done

just tried to reset the image size on my camera and it don`t go down that low, nowhere near it in fact. The video size goes down to 640x480 but the picture  frames won`t

whats the min it will go down to cabman 1024x768 might just do it but you may only beable to up load 1 pic at a time with out having to resize

1280x960 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thats prob a tad to big you can still easly resize your pics and load them direct if you are  runing windows xp pro when you go to your documents and click on my pics if you click on one of your pics it will open up in to a single image if you right click on that image in the drop down menu dose it say any ware there resize image

I`ve done it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!! I have entered the 21st century!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the help Zakboy (Virago riders stick together lol)

well you loaded that ok cabman thats 512x600

you can show us some of your virago pics now matey

The problem with resetting the size on the camera is a picture will then always be that resolution. This is okay for most people and pictures though. If you leave the camera at a high resolution you can always get commercial prints/blow ups done if you want them. A pic taken at 640 x 480 will only enlarge so far and may lose detail. If the pics are for the net/forums there is no problem though :)

I just get the hang of it and you just had to get all technical again didn`t you !!!!!!!!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

lol, dont worry Cabman, if you are taking pics for the forum then 640 x 480 is great. :)

HI CABMAN77 you can download a  picture resizer called PHOTORAZER and be able to use  any size then resize with this program  Free Download

Managed to figure out how to use Nero after having it for three years thanks for the advice though bitzman

No problem it is so easy to use asks you which you want small you re-size then go to ADDITIONAL OPTIONS  on post reply and post

just done that downloading photorazer thingamybob got set up simple to use banged in a file (40 pics)for it to resize didn't go in any deeper just pressed ok ok ok waited for 10 mins the bloody thing  still didn't say  it had finished
so cancelled it and went to the file i took the piccies from and lo and behold they was a folder within a folder named small and blow me all piccies reduced so banged em on here an worked perfect my son tried to put some pics on another forum site yesterday but it wouldn't accept one at a time he used this and it took 4 the maximum he could put on one thread
so tried photorazer to resize a folder with 62 pics on went for a slash opened the same folder and there it was a folder within a folder named small
now can anyone tell me how to get these piccies onto my betamax video tapes
many thanks and lots of jaffa's in anticipation

If you right click on the picture and use 'Send To' then 'Mail Recipient' you will see it allows you to re size it, then just E Mail it to yourself.

Just teasing more like.
Very nice is it yours,And welcome aboard.

nice morris.

Hi
Thanks for welcome.
It is my car, a 1934 morris 10/4, with chevy 305, th350, and jag axle.
Its original, steel chasis boxed in, steel body chopped and channelled, with lots of wood in roof, and doors. Sound deadening seems to be horse hair, and binding material (I didn't poke too much in that).
