Hi----try to use PHOTOBUCKET
I copied this from another site---hope it helps
Directions
Go to Photobucket and set up an account.
It's free. After set up, you'll get a page that has
several windows that say upload. If you want to upload more
pictures than the number of windows, click on "add more", and
you'll get more windows. Click browse and find the picture
file name on your computer. Add as many pictures as you want
and click upload. Depending on the number and size of the
pictures, it could take several minutes.
Once the pictures are uploaded, you will find images of the
pictures at the bottom of your "my album" page. Click on edit
(just above the picture) then click on resize (the fourth button
from the left). Click on the down arrow to the right of the
"Preset Sizes" button. Select the "message board" size (640 X
480).
You may now need
to click on the "Fullscreen" button
Click "replace original" then click on the back arrow to return to
your album
Now your pictures are ready to be posted to the forum. Open
the "reply" window and type your message. Now go to your
album page on Photobucket. Under each picture it
lists;
Email & IM
Direct Link
HTML Code and
IMG Code
Simply click on the window to the right of the IMG Code. If
it doesn't already say copied, simply right click and click on
"copy".
Now go back to your PDM Forum reply window and right click where
you want your picture. Right click and click paste. The
picture will NOT show up here. Only the link to your picture
on Photobucket will show. Continue alternately adding the
narrative and the links for as many pictures as you
want.
Click on Reply and your post with the pictures and narrative should
show up
By the way, if you delete or change your picture on Photobucket,
the image in your post will be deleted or changed. Therefore,
if you delete a picture in Photobucket that you posted on the forum
several days ago, that picture will no longer show up when someone
goes back to read your post.
