Doug:

Just make sure the pic is sized BEFORE adding to the post! DAMHIK

IIRC, 1.03Kb

Depending on pixelation, I just size it down to 250X300 or so. They (most times) get way small, mebbe 1/2 the page width, but at least ya don't get the "PIC's TOO BIG" response

Go to the "browse" button at the bottom of the post, select the proper pic file from yer computer, open it and hit submit. JUst that easy!

Ya can only do one per post, but at least ya get to add text per pic.

Best,
Paul

I use an image hosting site. it is free and is pretty simple. I have a heck of a time getting the pics resized so it is easier to upload them and then just put in a link.

Try Hunt101.com or photobucket.com for basic hosting. Its been a while since I fooled with either, but they used to offer pretty decent bandwidth options, the downside being that hunt101 would add some fugly site ad crap onto your photo.

Photobucket is the best in my book.

Photobucket.com
imagestation.com
tinypic.com

Then read the Sticky in Suggestions and Technical Support Forum.

VOILA!

We'll be adding this software to the FAL Files in the near future, but for now, it's free to use on ARFiles. Just sign up an account and you can upload images there and post them here (or anywhere else).
