Hey, you know what I can't figure out?

How do you add a picture or file from your computer? I can add a picture from the web, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to upload a picture from my computer.

Love to know how to do that!

I don't think you can upload from your computer. I upload my pics to photobucket then copy and paste the IMG code.

Oh!! That's how you do it!

Thanks!

Mira, are you asking if you can upload a picture from your computer to the Bransforums? Sure you can!!

In the "post a reply" window, look below the Save-Preview-Submit buttons. There's a tab that's active (Options) and a tab that's inactive (Upload attachment). Click on 'Upload attachment' and then 'Browse...' to choose something from your harddrive. You might have to resize any pictures because if you have a decent resolution on your camera they will be ginormous in the forums. (Right-click the photo and choose 'Open With...' then 'Paint'. Go to 'Image' then 'Resize/Skew' and you can make the photo a percentage of the original size.)

Very handy, and you don't have to go through several websites to do it, either. :)

I use www.tinypic.com to add pictures to the forum. I like Tinypic a little better than Photobucket, but they work the same.

Brenda!! I can't believe I didn't notice that!

There it is, right there. Okay, I'm going to upload a picture from my computer right now, just to show I can do it!

Awesome, Brenda, thank you!

Here it is, today's picture:
It's perfect!!

Thanks so much. Happy Monday.

Glad I could help, Mira. It took me a while to find it, also, so I'm happy to share. And I love that picture! It made me laugh.
