    Default Help Positng a Picture

    Hi...I have tried a bunch of times to post a picture. I read the instructions below but I don't see any icons on top of the message box. I haven't been able to do this since the new site formate.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    To insert a picture in your post, select the “insert image” icon on top of the message box. This icon looks like a framed picture of a tree. Once you select this icon, you have the choice of attaching a file from your computer or entering the url (web address) for the image. Please note that the url must be for the image itself, not the whole website. You can usually get an image url by right-clicking on the picture and selecting “copy image address”.

    If you don't have the icons above the Reply box, you need to go into settings and click on WYSIWYG. Settings are found up at the top of each page where your Welcome PumpkinSundae is.

    Your picture may need to be resized.

    Your picture size may be too big. When I upload my pictures from my camera, I automatically size down by half and save. That way I don't firget later. I have "PAINT" on my computer.
