Roger,

When you go about the pic posting process, what you described and shows above happens when you use the "Insert Image Link" (picture button) in the menu bar above the text entry box.

Instead of going there, once you are in "Use Full Editor", go down to the "Attachment Manager" link in the lower left of the box and click on that.

From there:

- Click the "File Caption" box and enter a short descriptive title of the pic you want to attach (note: it helps to give the pic a name in your Picture Library or where ever it is before doing this).

- Next, click "Select A File To Attach" and find your picture (iPhone choices should pop up as: Photo Library, Take Photo or Video, or Choose File).

- Next, select the pic you want to attach (it should display on your screen showing the options of "Cancel" on left and "Choose" on right with "Actual Size" displayed in middle).

- Next, click "Choose" and the screen for the "Attachment Manager" will display again (a very small thumbnail with the file name and info will display lower down to indicate the pic is now in the "Attachment Manager"). Do the above process for all pictures you want to attach (you can do up to 10 in each post), then click "Done".

- The screen display should return to your post/reply box and next to the link for the "Attachment Manager" should show "(Total Files: XX)", indicating the number of picture you have attached.

NOTE: At this point you will not actually be able to see the pictures you have attached, even if you select "Preview Reply" as that function only makes your text box info display as it will in your actual post.

- When you have completed attaching your pictures, and entered whatever message you are sending in the text box, final step is to hit "Post Reply". Your screen view will revert back to the post you just entered or replied to and display your post which will then display the photos as "thumbnails" along the bottom. You should then be able to click those thumbnails and view them in a larger window format.

Give this a try and lets see how it works!
