First, your camera needs to be digital, to get it to your computer. Usually the camera comes with a USB cable to hook it to your computer. Most computers have a picture folder, that is where I store all mine (I have made different folders for family, quilts, quilt shows and friends..etc.etc..)

Depending upon the size (pixels) that you have taken your pictures, some sites suggest that you make your picture smaller (less pixels). I usually have my camera set at 'S', going for less pixels, then I don't have to go through 'shrinking' my pictures.

To post pictures here is easy, compared to going through all the above. As you post in the text box, below is "file attachments", click on 'Browse'. It will take you to your picture folders, select the picture you want to share. Also you will notice that there is a text box to the left of the browse 'button', there you can explain extra details about your wonderful quilts.

Good luck
