Not that I have anything to share right at the moment but I may in the future want to post some pics. How do you get pics in your posts? Guess I'm a dummy but can't figure it out. Do you need do load them to a website and download from there? Any help? Thanks!

What I do is, I upload picture to my image host for auctions,(auctionwatch.com) or my website. Once picture is uploaded, I right click on it and click on properties. This will tell you the address of the photo, I write it down, (or right click and copy) and when posting a topic, click on image,(under instant UBB code) and a box will appear asking for address of image paste or type the address of you image.
Hope this helps!

Steve, I'm guessing from your address that you have broadband connection. Broadband usually comes with free memory at the host site that you can use as you please. The nice thing about this space is, you can upload to it using the phone company's upload program, so you don't have to learn FTP.
To get to the point, the only trick is getting the pic saved on a host, so you can copy the link and paste it on the correct line in the Letterhead site.
So you save your file as a jpeg. Barb's note will tell you the max size. I think it is 500x500 pixels. Then you upload it into your free memory space. You save a copy of the link on your scratch pad.(Control C) Now Barb's writeup will tell you where to paste it (Control V)in the message. This sounds a little cryptic, but when you go thru the process, you will see it is pretty much "follow the roadsigns".
If you have some spare time, just upload something for practice. Then you will have the procedure down when you are ready to do the real thing. Vic G
