Sounds like you got a good deal....and its been inside for 10 years. Pictures pictures  Down in the left bottom of the forum pages, even on this page, you will see a link about posting inmages. Click on it and I think you'll figure it out. Basically you load your pictures to a host site like Photobucket or Flicker and I guess imageshack is the same...and then you can just copy the address at the top of that page and then paste the link here. If that don't do it someone that knows more about computers will chip in. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 15 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 15 | thanks a chipmonk i figured it out maybe | | | | | Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 15 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 15 | Spell error Thank Achipmunk | | | | | Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 15 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 15 |
