Photo to be posted must be on the web and in a site that allows cross posting.

Many Forum users use www.imagestation.com (http://www.imagestation.com) . This is a free site which seems to have unlimited storage, large picture size, and unlimited albums.

Upload your pictures to ImageStation and create your albums or leave the pics in the in box as you wish.Pictures in ImageStation are displayed in three sizes: thumbnail, display and original. Left click on the thumbnail brings up the display photo, about 640 bits X 400 or so. A left click on the display photo brings up the photo in the original size you uploaded. Forget this one, except in rare cases which I cannot explain it cannot be cross linked. Select the picture you want to share in The Forum, thumbnail or display.

Left click on the thumbnail to show the display version. Right click on the picture. Left click “Properties”.

Highlight the Address [URL] and copy it.Now go to The Forum and prepare your new message.Write what you want as a preamble to your picture, then:

Below the message area is a button, “IMAGE”. Left click it. Paste the URL you copied above into the block displayed. Note that the block contains http already highlighted. Just paste without doing any thing else so you don’t get http twice.Add anything else you wish to add after the picture is displayed.

Click on the “Display Message” button to confirm that what you want us to see will appear, then close the window.Click the “Add Reply” button and standby for responses.—Norm

I use PhotoBucket now days. I did use Sonys ImageStation, and still have lots of pictures stored there, but I foresee them getting too big, and they've already lost some of my pictures (by their admission.)

right click the picture you want to show to get the properties. Copy the url address, must be a full address to the picture, if in doubt you can paste into the browser and see if it works.
CLick the image button
Paste the url

I use TinyPic. It's also free and you don't have to sign up for anything.
