Okay, I know how to post pics and to post thumbnails that take you to another site. How do I post the thumbnails that enlarge the pictures and allow you to scroll to the following pictures?

Hey Francis,

Yes I am using Photobucket but what I'm talking about is like Al used in post #158 in this thread.

Kirk,

Al is attaching the pictures directly to the forum using the Manage Attachments option found at the bottom of each new post you make. In order to use the board's attachment function, your pictures have to be 85KB or less.

You can also use Francis' method through Photobucket. Those thumbnails will open in a new window and take you to your Photobucket account to see the larger ones.

Thanks Ryan,

I've just come to realize that the links I'm talking about are much more user friendly than the way that I've been posting pics. Of course, you have to reduce the size to 85 kb which is more of a pain, especially when you're challenged like I am.

Thanks for the help.
