My problem was that the Browse button wasn't there for me to put the pic in. Go to the group info and it will tell you how to post a picture.
Using the Quick Reply at the bottom of the page doesn't allow you to post pictures, unless you go back to your post and edit -- adding attachments.

Most cameras will give you a picture that is HUGE, so you need to learn how to cut the pic down with an editing software such as Photoshop or you can use Windows' cheapie and save it as a JPEG extension, so it doesn't take up so much room.

You need to hit REPLY on someone elses post and then the box will come up so you can BROWSE and then ADD the file attachment. You can add your own words in the first box.

Don't use PREVIEW, it won't work for the pics. Just ADD the FILE and hit the SEND button.

I have two, one is a chicken my mother-in-law gave me many years ago and the other is the one that's round and has thread around the edges that my mother made, also many years ago. Both very cherished.

Show me your pincushions! What's your favorite?

Love the little Owl I made yesterday from a pattern HERE: http://moonstitches.typepad.com/phot...ial/index.html
Are there directions for the owl or just the template?
After you enter the gallery and see the template, look in the upper left corner, it has "next" keep clicking there to see the next step on how to assemble the owl.

Holy moly, that's a lot of pincushions! Makes my single little pincushion look a little sad :)

Love your pincushions! I've started collecting them too. They have a shelf right next to my Mother's collection of tape measures.

With 12 cats all my pin cushions have to stay out of sight. They have recently started opening the draws and stealing them!
