We have 3 newbies- 'how to post pics' thread

[Veranda]

So we have three newbies here today. Two of them have said they would like to see more pics posted here. I say do it yourself!

Might as well post the directions for pic posting before they all ask at once.

Anybody care to jump in and help me go ahead. This can be a thread where the newbies, and oldbies who still can't post, can come test their posts.

1. Go find a pic- as we all found out, Geocities and Tripod will not post here.

2. Right click on the pic, then click properties.

3. Highlight the URL with your mouse and copy it.

4. Paste it here, with

after it.

Other people's advice like this taught me to post, and I hope this helps someone else.

IF anyone has any questions, I am sure one of the PLEBA sisters will be glad to help out.

Now, newbies, let's see some pics!
