So I have sent myself photos from my OH computer so I can share a photo on the forum. I have used the Help but cnnot find out how to insert the file name into the text that pops up below


Any clues -  how do I get a file from my lap top onto the forum ?

thanks Martin

Well I load them into Photobucket and then just copy and past the IMG code it gives me

There is a thread on here somewhere explaining how to do it, but basically you may need to reduce the size of your photo first. (Less than 512 kbs)  When you have a reply box open look down at the bottom left and click attachments and other options.  Click on choose file, a dialogue box will open so you can look for your photo - I put them on the desk top so they are easy to find before I start to upload. Double click on the photo then click post.

Take em to the festival of the pumpkin of course.
The village had them displayed everywhere  - even  roundbouts some miles away them on wheelburrows.
The masters of the pumpkin led the parade of pumpkins escorted by French Horn players - I say French horns but they were massive and had no keys or stops..
never seen so many chutneys and jams made of pumpkins . good day out.

Sandy,  you've got a photo programme?  I know you are really good at doing things with photos -is it  Photoshop maybe?  I use Microsoft picture manager and just edit photos, then compress to document size.  I don't have the software to do anything fancy.

I have all sorts of posh photo shop stuff due to family being comp programmers etc but it seems to take me ages to sort out the right photos so I put them on photobucket!!!
