[cubby558]

OK Sandy here are some quick instructions for posting photos:

1. Download your photos to a hosting site like photbucket.com Once that is done open another window and open xlr-net site and choose the thread you want to post your photos to. Click post reply and click in the reponse window (this is where your photo will be poted--add any comments before hand and hit enter to have the photo post below the text.)

2. Go back to your photobucket window and choose the photo you want, move your mouse over the photo and you'll see a direct link. Right click on the direct link and choose copy.

3. Now go back to the xlr-net site and click on the insert image icon, (it's below the undo arrow) a window will pop-up. right click on the http:// and paste what you just copied.

4. Repeat this to add more photos. When you are done click on submit reply and your photos will be posted.

Note: after you add a picture, make sure to hit enter to get pictures below one another.

Hope this helps!!

Does this add them directly in the message (like the postings Bob did before the get together) or as a link in the message. I swear I figured it out before and I know I did not use a photobucket type of site.

When you go to the advanced reply, go down to the
advanced options area. Click on manage attachments, this will bring up a separate window. After you are done is where you can download attachments; these will show as thumbnails in your post. When you are done, close the extra window and then click submit reply.
Hope this helps!!

It's easier for me to just have them show as thumbnails...

I posted this because Graytoad asked how to get pictures posted that aren't thumbnails. Doesn't matter to me hoe anyone posts their pics, I can still see them!
