    Default Problems with pictures

    Am I the only one having problems getting pictures to my posting? I have wasted over 2 hours trying desperately to add pics to a post. I finally give up, but am I the only one? I'm ready to throw my computer out the window at this point. Just wanted to know if the problem is on my end or if I'm not alone....
    It just sits there saying it's loading and never finishes.

    No, I don't think that's it. I've posted in the past and never had a problem with resolution. It's like it just refuses to load. It's so frustrating. I guess it's just my computer.

    Default Windows live photo

    I signed up for www.windowslivephoto.com IT'S FREE! I download my pictures to window live photo. Then I go to reply to thread and at the bottom of posting I click on go advance. I then fill in the title and go down and add my message.

    Then 2 lines up in the fourth lit bar there are 4 icons. Click on #3 the frames that has a tree in it.
    It will come up with how you want to get pictures and click on computer then browse. Pick you picture and open. It will take you back to window and click upload and it will open your picture just below your message area. The picture will be small. Just double click on it and choose full size and you picture will be the right size.

    I find the windows live photo will make the picture the right size to upload.

    Hope this helps you.

    99.99999% of failed uploads are because the file is too big.

    as Up North advised, this is a good place to start. If you read all the way through you will find several different suggestions. You can pick the method you like best.
