You need to check the size of the file on the picture you are trying to upload. If it's larger than a jpeg, it won't load. Sometimes it takes a couple of hours for them to load if there's a lot of traffic on the board.

If you need help resizing let me know the windows program you are using and what picture program you favor.

It might not be the right file type, it has to be a GIF, PNG, or JPG file.

The thing that bit me in the hiney when I tried posting was using the PREVIEW button to be sure my picture showed in my post. If you use PREVIEW, it doesn't add the picture. So, it could be something as simple as that.

Mary, I downsize mine to "web" size. They are easier to deal with but my Windows picture program allows me to choose many sizes.

Hope you find a solution soon!
