I use www.photobucket.com I put my photos there and then under the image it gives you the http: address. Just copy it and then inside your message, on the tool bar above where you are typing, click the insert image icon and then paste the http address you copied and voila.
After you upload your pics into your gallery, just copy and past into you message.
If you want the pick to appear all the time past it into your signature.
With this website there is no need to use photobucket.com. You can upload directly. At the bottom of the page, there are 2 buttons. The "Post Quick Reply" and "Go Advanced". Click "Go Advanced", where you will see "Manage Attachments". This is where you upload photos. The images should be 72 dpi, and from my experience, no dimension should exceed 5" or so (either height or width). The box which appears will ask you where the file is, click upload, after it is done it will tell you if the file was too big or if it was OK. Close the window THEN click "Submit Reply".
Other sites use "shareware" software that's why it doesn't allow you to upload directly. Big-X paid for this software so it can do much more.
Wow, that's cool. I did not know this. Thanks Shutterbug.

Shutterbug, Can you also do this with your signature so your ride appears like bonnieseymour? Then you don't have to attach each time.

Click on your user control panel (upper left hand corner of web page) Then click on edit signature. You can post your pic in there so it shows up with every post. :)
See if I can make it work for me.........
Actually, I added my bike's photo under the "Edit Avatar" section in the User Control Panel.
Thanks to everyone for the good information. This is truly a great site, great people!
