long time lurker Posted March 3, 2006 #1 Share Posted March 3, 2006 I would like to add a picture from my latest cruise and add it to a post. Can someone give me step by step instructions for doing this? thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusinmama06 Posted March 3, 2006 #2 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Click on "Manage Attachments" at the bottom of the screen. Click browse to find your pic in your own computer, then upload once you find the picture. One thing I noticed when doing it, if it is too big, you will have to resize it.

Sheffie Posted March 4, 2006 #3 Share Posted March 4, 2006 I cannot put my pictures from home on here because they are too large. If your picture is on-line on a site such as http://www.webshots.com, you can just go to the large version on the picture, right click on the picture, go to properties, copy the http address, go to the little picture of the mountain at the top of the message box, backspace the http out of it, paste, and then OK. Hope this helps! Ladies here on CC taught me how to do this and to post one of those cute GIFs. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crusinmama06 Posted March 4, 2006 #5 Share Posted March 4, 2006 How do you resize a photo?????? It depends what kind of photo programs you have in your computer. Usually there is an option to resize listed somewhere. You just have to open the picture in that program, resize, then upload it. In my computer, there is Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Photo Elements, Paint Shop Pro, HP Image Zone, etc. Any photo program will resize it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuizer2 Posted March 4, 2006 #6 Share Posted March 4, 2006 You can also use a photo hosting site, like Photobucket.Com, then link to the photo, like in the photo below of one of the Voyager ships in drydock ... "> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madforcruising Posted March 4, 2006 #8 Share Posted March 4, 2006 1. Go to http://www.tinypic.com 2. upload your picture there 3. Copy the URL of your picture from the Tinypic site 4. Post you message and click on 5. Paste the copied link from the Tinypic site BTW this won´t work with pics from webshots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone have any other suggestions to resize the photo. Howdy, Long Time Lurker! I found a great tool for resizing photos and it is free. I downloaded Photo Gadget from http://www.xemico.com/photogadget/ and use it to resize the photos once they are in My Pictures. It is fairly easy to use. And one more thing to anyone reading this post, for testing pictures or anything else for that matter, please remember to use the Test Forum. All tests go there. Thanks!
