Well, first of all, reread the post on how to post photos. You can find it here:

http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/my-...-pictures.html

I think it's a fairly easy to follow procedure. Of course I've been a computer geek for 25+ years and what I take for granted others struggle with.

It really is fairly easy and once you get it done, you shouldn't have much trouble with it again. First off all, make sure you're in the "My Yorkie Pictures!" forum. I see photos posted in other forums but I think this is where they really want them. Once there, create a new thread like you normally would and type whatever message you want with your photos. Once finished, click up on the attachments button in the message editor. It looks like a little paper clip. Another window should open called Manage Attachments. Click on browse and browse to the location on your computer where the photos you want to post are stored. Select the filename and click open. Repeat this up to three more times for each photo you want to post. Click upload. The photos will be uploaded to YorkieTalk and will be attached to your message. From there you just click Submit like you would for any other YorkieTalk post.

I think we're limited to four photos per message. The size limitation is 200k per photo. If they're jpg's and you resize your photos to 1024x768 or smaller at medium quality level (around level 6), you should have no trouble being under 200k and your photos should still look pretty good.

Hopefully this helps you and you will now be able to post photos. Once you get this done a time or two, you shouldn't have any trouble remembering from that point on. It really is quite easy once you get the hang of it. It's just getting it done that first time or two that is the trick.

Good luck.
