Dull-witted old man here; can't figure out how to attach a photo of my wineador to a post. I looked at the previous threads and got no help. Ideas anybody?

* Just updating- I think I have it now. Thanks to you all, y'all are the best!

Using Photobucket is free....there is even a tutorial on Utube that tells you how to do what you want. Uploading pictures allows you to post on just about any Forum...it re sizes your photos as well as some Forums have a size regulation so that you aren't uploading megabyte sizes of photos. Once you've uploaded your picture then click on the image and you'll see 4 different ways of sharing the link....choose the last one...IMG by clicking on it to copy and then after you do that you go to the thread/post and use that link to post in the thread you are typing in.....example for this is the photo I'm putting in here now...it's a photo of a Cigar Lounge on one of the Cruise Ships I go on. Click on an empty part of the post you are writing on and then right click your mouse and click on PASTE...

Thanks for those details! I'll look into all this in the am and see if I can get it down. You're one of the good ones, Cigary!

First, open your picture file with "Paint" and resize it to a smaller size. Then try and reload it onto BotL. This site won't resize it to fit within the page, you have to do it manually ahead of time.

I'll give that a try, but it isn't big, just a normal photo. If this doesn't work for me, I'll try PhotoBucket. Thanks for all the help bros!

Now all you have to do is resize it a little bigger..........I hope I never hear those words pointed in my direction!

Files are limited to 1mb for uploads. If you have an iphone you can email it to yourself, it will give you the option to reduce the size. Alternatively, you can take an iphone screen pic (home & lock button) of the pic which produces a smaller sized version. That's how I work around it.
