Not being a computer guy, as it seems most of the CSC'ers are, based on the "What do you do for a living?" thread, I'm trying to figure out how to post a picture that is not just a thumbnail, unless you are signed in. So, this is just a test.

Hmmm. Guess that didn't work.

get a photobucket account (or similar online photo hosting website)

http://photobucket.com/

upload your pics to photobucket (braindead simple as long as you can find the file on your PC.)

once the pic is uploaded and saved, photobucket provides four different link formats for use on the internet and email. copy and paste the "IMG code" link and paste it into your post. Done

Thanks. I've got a photobucket acct. now. I copied the url, and tried to put it up. Will the picture come up in the "preview post" ? Or do you have to actually post it, because so far, I'm not getting a thing.
