I know....there's no "shouting" in bold and caps on the QB - but I thought with a title I would get the attention of those interested Several people have asked how to post pictures. You can find the instructions when you go to the "help" near the top of all entries on each page of each thread. However, I do remember having a problem there quite some time ago, haven't looked recently and I tend to be 'wordy' enough that people usually understand my instructions! If there is a problem please let me know...

POSTING PICTURES:
As for posting pics - I had such a hard time doing that myself initially. Now I actually take most pictures with my [not so] "smart" phone android, put my email address in the contact slot to "send" messages to or email it to myself from my phone at 30%. From my email I save it to a picture file. I right click on it once it's in the file [can't figure out how to do it directly] and open with microsoft office. When the picture shows, I go up to the top and click on edit picture and you will get a list of stuff on the right, under picture size click on resize. Another section will come up - go to predefined width and size and hit that little arrow - you can choose either of the web sizes will be fine. Hit "ok" at the bottom and then go to the file at the top toolbar on the far left - hold that and go to "save as" and remember to save it in a file whether it be your general picture file or whatever so you can find it to post ---this is the point I give it a DJ name like DJm3, etc. [I can't tell you how often I have forgotten one of these last two steps and it goes into "lala land"... with the missing socks!!]
Once you have it saved like this you can post real easily - you click on the little box above this 'reply' box in the tool bar above here....to the right of the smiley face and the two worlds just to the left of the filmstrip [with a magnifying glass you can see it actually contains a tree!!] When you do this another box pops up that lets you browse in your computer - choose the file with the picture you resized and click on 'upload'

This is actually a very quick procedure - in the time I typed this you can upload ten pictures!!

If you don't have a "smartphone" or a "not so smart phone" you can still follow most of the instructions above once you get your pictures transferred to a picture folder on your computer.
