Hi Teena,
Lots of info. coming up I'm sure.
Please remember that there is a maximum file size that Dan can accept. I still haven't worked out how to downsize some pics.

To get any image into a post that image has to be stored on the Internet in a web server with public access. Most Internet service providers give free web space with the connection but the information regarding address and login details will be buried in the introductory letter or e-mail. For just £10 a year there is facilities on the A4A server or there are free photo sites such as photobuckit.

frist you will need to sign up for a free photobucket account

when you have your Account click on my album at the top of the page

1. Click on my album

2. Click on choose file




clicking on choose file will open my documents on your computer choose the file that has your photos in , then click on the photo you want to up load then click on open this will start the dowm load to photobucket , then retrun to your album


3. after the photo has been loaded to photobucket you can put it on any web site
click on Direct Link this will copy and paste the link you will need to post the photo on the forum the link will trun blue and it will say copied if you have done it right




4.  then go to the forum you want to post the photo







only post the link of the photo if you want to type some thing do it out side of middle lines or the photo will not come up

hope you can understand how to do it lost me  and i know how to do it

[Teena]

Brilliant, Sunner - but how do you do the annotations/balloons??

well what i use is a add on for firefox its called FireShot if you want to use it you will have to use firefox as your web browsers.
Thats no worrys if you dont already use it takes your bookmarks and things from  Internet Explorer  and is much faster i think it is anyway , but saying that they might do it for Internet Explorer i dont know dont think so tho.
So all you do is DoubleClick the photo you want on photobucket do it comes up big
sceenshot crop the size so just the bit you want to see or the photo is in  view  add the things you want save it to your comp then dowm load it again to photobucket and it will have the things you have added too the photo will be on there

but if you go on there web site is a video demo shows you how to do it all its not hard just have to play about with it   here is the link

http://screenshot-program.com/fireshot/

But you can do it on photobucket not got the same things on it i like fireshot but its ok

Double  Click the photo you want in photobucket  it will come up like this




  This will come up   then you can add things you want  just click save and it will be saved to your photobucket album with the add ons




here is one i done on photobucket cant do the same as fireshot  but still ok and not that hard to use




if you cant get on with any of them let me know and i will do a better post on how to do it when i have more time

How do you do straight lines??

[sunner]

i know bit hard to do a straight on the photobucket one
i think you would be better off useing windows paint

this is how you get it up

click on start  go to all programs

go to Accessories  the drop down window that opens should have paint in it clcik on that

when you have paint open  go to files at the top left   then go to open 
click on open and choose the photo you want to use from your comp

when you have done what you wanted to do go back on to files click on save as and this will save the photo back too your comp with the changes then you can but it on photobucket to post it on a web site


on windows paint you can grag a straight line from point to point or bennd it to any shape or use there shapes that are on there


if you read this web site will tell you how to do it  you want to read...  The Line Tool.....The Pencil Tool .......The Shapes Tool ...... Border Thickness of Shapes .......Hollow Shapes     
here is the link to read
