Hi all

Could someone please explain to me how to add a picture, image, or screen-shot to a post?
I have tried unsuccessfully

When you create a new post or reply (not 'fast reply'), under the box where you write your message there is an attachments section. Click the browse button on the right to browse to the pic you want, select it, click the upload button and post your reply

Hi JDPower
I tried doing that with a Bitmap file that was less than 1.95mb, a description of the file was inserted in my post, not the picture ?

Convert the bmp to jpeg. I recommend using Paint.NET instead of Paint. It does a lot more.

Hi TwistedMetal
How do I do that? Do I right click and use openwith? and then save as?

Paint.NET

File, Open, Save As... Save as type: JPEG

Thanks TwistedMetal
I'm a bit rusty with some computer skills "lack of use" spending to much time playing games' you know
I pasted my screen-shot in paint, and then saved it as a JPEG file.

Do your self a favor and check this screen shot tool out. Makes taking screen shots simple as can be. It also has an editor in it. This is the last free ware version of it. http://www.aplusfreeware.com/categories/mm...oneCapture.html

There is also a portable version that requires no install and you can run of a USB drive. A member of this forum was nice enough to provide it for me. Here is the thread and link to the app. http://forum.piriform.com/index.php?showtopic=10753
