Title: Help Posting Pictures
Post by: CJPilot on October 18, 2012, 09:41:28 PM: Why is it so hard for me to post a picture? ï¿½ This is what I have done, maybe it's not the right way to do it.

I take a CJ3A related picture with my phone.

I then email it to my computer.

Next I login to my photobucket account.

Then upload the picture to a public folder.

ops, Sorry ï¿½need to find a web site to resize the photo first and ï¿½I resize photo

Next I upload the picture to photobucket

Then I haven't posted a picture in a while ï¿½so I forgot how to put it in my post.

thanks in advance for the help

Go to the web page where you want to put the image, left click where you want it and hit Ctrl-V to paste the link. Hit "Preview" to make sure it took. That should do it.

Go to Photobucket and click on UPLOAD PHOTO, browse your files for the photo you want and double click on it. Photobucket will upload it and resize it for you. Go to your album in photobucket and put your cursor on the photo you want and slide to the bottom of the list that has img---------------------------img and click on it. That will automatically copy it. Then go to the web site you want to post it on and open the thread and in the text area use cntrl/V to put the photo in the text box. ï¿½

Larry, cntrl/C copies the photo and cntrl/V pastes it.
