HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR PICTURES YOU POST TO SHOW UP?

right away

Longer than I think it should, but I can tell when it's loading at the bottom of my screen and have learned what to expect. It takes up to 2 or 3 minutes at times.

within a minute or two. Look for "MY TOPICS" at the top of the page & click on that. You can't see your own post under the reg. sections like unread topics. --As far as I know--

I thought I put pictures in of my quilt about 15 minutes ago, but can't find it anywhere

what posting did you try to add picture to? You cannot hit the "preview" button, it wipes out any pictures you have attached. When I checked your topics I did not see one where you tried to attach a photo.

I never let my posts sit that long. If it takes too long, I hit "stop" and "send" again. I assume it does this because others are posting at the same time.

I did not hit preview, I can't find the words I wrote with it either
I'm feeling like they don't want my pictures?

hmmm, click on Browse, find your photo in your computer, click on it once and then on Open. then it should be showing a link in the smaller box/bar right next to the word Browse. the longer box/bar to the left is for you to name your photo if you want to.
then click Send and it should be there. good luck

If it's the Blue Ribbon quilt it is under "main" section.
