It's pretty easy once you know what has to be done... First you have to get the image onto the internet somehow- I have a couple servers so I just put the picture I want to show on one of mine and post the link. You can search for free image host and use one of those.. Or email it to one of us who has a server. (easier for you to find your own "hosting" tho as I'm not always around to post pics for folks) Once you get space on a server somewhere, put your image on it (it's called "uploading") then you can use the "Optional Link URL:" below to post a link to the image, or write some HTML code to make the image pop up here. For example, if I wanted to post first I would upload it, then I would go look at it in my browser, then copy the URL of where it is. THe URL of this example is: http://krstofer.org/plants/passiflorasunburst.jpg (It's what's in the "location" field at the top of your browser) Then if I wanted to make the image appear here I'd type (img src="location of your image ") which in this example would be (img src="http://krstofer.org/plants/passiflorasunburst.jpg") NOTE: You have to change the ( and ) to respectively to make the image appear- I had to use the () to "trick" the forum into showing the code rather than looking for an image somewhere... And when you've done all correctly you should be able to see your image in the "preview" section of your post, and when your done the image should pop up: Just like that.

Thanks, Cindy. I have few more shots on the same day. http://www.pbase.com/kaihui/2005_10 You are also welcome to visit my gallery. (messy though. I need to find tiem to organize it better). http://www.pbase.com/kaihui/

Hi Megpie77, If you read the "New to Garden Web" link there are some specific directions to follow. Once you read and practice a few times you will be uploading all the time. I pasted below what is on the link. -boxerpups Posting a picture from your photo hosting account (e.g., PhotoBucket) First, where are your pictures? If on your computer only, you'll need to upload them somewhere on the web for the rest of us to see them. I upload pictures to PhotoBucket. Open an account w/PhotoBucket or other photo hosting site. Take a picture using a digital camera (or film camera but get them on disk when they're developed) Resize your pics so they're approx 400x300 (resize keeping the same proportions so they don't get distorted...i.e., don't specify a specific size, use %-ages or similar) Upload your pictures to your photo account Find the label that contains the link to the picture (In PhotoBucket, it's the box labeled "HTML Code") Copy that link and paste it into the "Message" box of a post. When you "Preview" your message, you'll see the picture. Posting a picture from somewhere other than your Photo hosting account Copy the following into the "Message" box where you want the picture to be: Next, replace the http://www.XXX/image.jpg with the address of the image. When you "preview" the message, you should see the picture Here is a link that might be useful: New to Garden Web.....
