First you need to resize your photos to be web friendly. Normally 600 pixels wide, or smaller is best. Anything larger than 600 pixels will spread the screen and you'll have to scan side to side to see the photo. Most software programs have a "photo resize" feature.

Most of the free photo hosting sites LIST HERE allow you to resize. Here is another site that can be used to resize images: http://bluefive.pair.com/pixresizer.htm

Set up an account at one of the free hosting sites. It is a good idea to save this site in your favorites file so that you can go to it easily. From here you need to create an album. After that is complete you will then "upload" your images onto the photo hosting site of your choice and into your album.

I know this sounds like a lot, but it's really pretty simple. Just follow the step by step instructions. You're almost ready to post the photo.

Move your mouse over the picture when it is at it's full size (thumbnail sizes won't work in some cases) and right click the mouse. Then click on "properties". This will open a pop up box. About halfway down in the box is an address that looks like this...http://coyotepicweasel@xxx.imagexxx. That is what you want.

Highlight the entire url and then right click again while over the highlighted area. Select "copy". Hit control "N" which will open a new browser window. In the new window, come over to Foxpro Forums. Then go to what ever post (or start a new thread) in whatever forum you want your photo. When you are typing your message and decide to put that picture in the message, click the little "Img" button which is above the box you are typing your message in. This will automatically insert the following into your post [img]. Left click behind the "[img]". Hit the Ctrl and V keys on your keyboard. This will paste the url of the image into your post. Under the "Img" button you'll see "Close Tags" click that.

Preview your post, then submit if all's well. This is all much easier than it sounds here. Give it a try. If you have any problems, PM me and we'll get it figured out.
