Notes on step 4.

It's best to post photos that are no wider than 1000 pixels and have a file size of less than 1mb.

If this is all greek to you then please spend time learning your camera's settings, or better yet, how to use the photo software that comes with your camera.

Thanks.

Peter

I can attach a photo but it shows as an attachment in the body of the post. Is there any way for the picture to open automatically whenever someone opens the message?

If the photo is bigger than 2mb its gonna show as a link. Reduce the size of the photo and it will show automatically.

Not really good with computers (or cars for that matter) When I try to add a photo using a file on my desktop---nothing gets added. I read one time you must post to the web (dont know how to do that either) is that the case?

nope... doesnt need to be on the web, you can upload the photo directly.

you do need to follow the instructions above however. if you arent confident with the computer you may want to have someone walk you through it while looking over your shoulder.

Many thanks Peter
I have now printed out your instructions and pinned them up on my bulletin board so there should be no problem in remembering the correct sequence in future.
