Gonzolas,

I'm no computer geek, but here are the basics.

1. Open an account with www.imagestation.com
[it's free].

2. Download pictures from your computer to imagestation.

3. Open a picture on imagestation

4. Put your cursor on the picture and RIGHT CLICK

5. A box will open up, LEFT CLICK on "Properties"

6. Another box will open up and you will see "Address: [URL]" to the right of that is the info you need. It will be very long, starting with "http://" and ending with ".jpg"

7. Put you cursor at the beginning of that address and LEFT CLICK AND HOLD and DRAG until the entire address is highlighted.

8. Put your cursor on the highlighted info and RIGHT CLICK. A window opens up, LEFT CLICK on "Copy".

9. Now type your message on AR and where you want the picture, LEFT CLICK on the "IMAGE" box, its at the bottom, to the right of the Instant Graemlins.

10. A window will open up, you need to put your cursor in the space in the window and LEFT CLICK, then delete the "http://" that is in the space. Now RIGHT CLICK (while your cursor is in the space). A window will open, then LEFT CLICK on "Paste".

[If you don't delete the "http://" that is in the space, when you Paste the URL from imagestation, it already has an "http://" at the beginning of the address and the picture won't post with two "http://" at the beginning of the address.]

11. Then LEFT CLICK on "OK".

 -

If anyone has any improvements/short-cuts to this method, please let me know.

Regards,

Terry

P.S.
Put your cursor on the picture above and RIGHT CLICK, then LEFT CLICK on "Properties" and you can see the URL for this picture.

First you need to sign up with a site that will allow to to upload and store you photos. I use http://www.hunting-pictures.com/ but there are quite a few others.

Second, you "open" the desired picture and proceed to "Copy" its web address (much like the above plus the photo name) and then "Paste" it into your Accurate Reloading posting window.

Third, after positioning the address you just "Pasted" in regard to your typed in text, add [img] before the address and [/img] after the adress, leaving no spaces. When you post your reply the photo will display as positioned within your text.

Mssgn, I tried fixing them for you but for some reason after I editted the post the code would revert back to what it was originally. So, I put a correct version in at the end instead. If you click on "edit post" you will be able to look at how it is written. You can compare it to the others to see what was wrong.

Hope that helps,
Canuck
