You need to have a place/way to get them online - photobucket, picasaweb, a personal web site, etc - then you can post a link to them (or embed them) here. I use Picasaweb - it's free and pretty easy, you just need to set up a google account (also free).

I have a picasaweb page and am able to post a link to the page, but what I want to do is have an image show up when the post is opened. I tried cut and paste on the embed box on picasa and all ?I got was a address. Will this show up as an image in the final post or is this just a link to a specific image?

Use the image (img) wrapper from the tool buttons above that will then look like this... (just remove the dot behind "[" ! I hope this helps!

Thanks I need to clean them up a bit, but my monitor is acting wierd. Color starts good then after machine is up and running for about 5min the color and density shift. This makes photoshop kind of a waste of time when I don't know what things will really look like.

Does any one know the paddlers that were in cboats on the Cheoah saturday?

For the wrapper... This thread pretty much cover its but I'll try to consolidate and hopefully if I miss something someone will jump on it.
First (per Scott's post)

You need to have a place/way to get (images) them online - photobucket, picasaweb, a personal web site, etc - then you can post a link to them (or embed them) here.

I too use Picasaweb and I have a personal site I use for other sites.

You can set up a google account (also free).

too.
Then embed the URL from the web site in a thread here
http://lh3.ggpht.com/paulcline2002/R4a1 ... 053400.JPG
then place the Img wrapper tags at the front and rear of the URL. This is done by highing the images URL then selecting the Img tag button.[. img] http://lh3.ggpht.com/paulcline2002/R4a1 ... 053400.JPG [./img]
Then submit the post which should leave you with this.

Remember you can edit your post(s) but you need to be logged in and use the edit box in the upper right hand corner (try not to use the delete "X" box option

).

Hope that helps. Paul C.

PS: You can also use the tag boxes above the Message body input screen to bold - B, italic - i, underline - U, place a character string in a quote box - quote, etc. you get the idea.

Feel free to experiment and enjoy!
