I've seen posts where the pictures are thumbnails and I'm wondering how do I do that? Whenever I post pictures I get the link from photobucket but I can't figure out how to make the picture a click-able thumbnail. :confused::confused: Thanks in advance!

It's pretty easy once you do it a couple of times. When you make a post in a thread or start a thread and you want to add an "attachment" such as a picture, scroll down and just below the "body" of the posting area you will see a section called "MANAGE ATTACHMENTS".........click on that area and a new small window will pop up and give you an opportunity to add attachments. Click on one of the "browse" buttons and it will allow you to select a picture from your computer to add. You can add as many as 5 attachments. . Once you choose your attachments/pictures, then simply hit "upload"........The system is set up to resize your photo to meet forum requirements but it does take a bit so you may have to wait when the site has to resize the picture or you can resize them yourself.

Once the photo has uploaded it will appear in that new window as attachments. At that point you can close that picture selecting window and then those attachments will appear in the bottom of the posting area when you submit the post automatically. OR you can also use the little paperclip on the top line of the posting area (*Fonts...Sizes....A....smiley face....paperclip) and attach them to your post that way. Doing it that way, you can move your attachments anywhere in the post.

I think I made it sound a Lot more difficult that it really is! :D

It's like when you want to send an e-mail. Except the manage attachment is below our text and not above. And then everything Carol said :D

Thank you! I started trying to figure it out the other night and I couldn't figure it out. I wish I would've scrolled further down and read the Manage attachment button or tried the paperclip! :p:p Lol.

Let me try while I'm at it! :D
