How do I attach photos to a message?
 
A message or a post? For a post you have to post them on another site (some of us use Photobucket), Yahoo won't work. Then you provide a link here to that photo. Not sure about messages but I suspect the same practice would work.
 
To copy use
 
I still can't figure it out. I have a great aerial photo of Destin, Fl last weekend but can't seem to get it to attach.
 
Did you get them up on Photobucket? Tell us your progress so far and we may be able to give more detailed instructions.

It's like learning to ride a bike or water ski; once you've done it you'll wonder why it took so long.

To put them up on Photobucket follow the instructions there. It's pretty much a matter of "browse" and "click".

To paste them here I open Photobucket in a SEPARATE browser from BoaterEd (you don't have to but it's easier for me). I find the pic I want; and there are 3 blocks below it. Click on the words "IMG code". It's copied automatically. Then move the cursor over to the quick reply window in Boater Ed and "paste" it in. Then go back to the Photobucket window and get the next one. Once you have them all put in your text if you haven't already. Preview, edit as required, and submit.
 
I have the photo's on Iphoto on a Mac and I have know problem emailing them or putting them anywhere else except here. I know it must be simple but I am beginning to think I am the simple one.
 
First you cannot "attach" pix to your posts here. Period. You have to put them up on the net (whereever) and then include a LINK to that location. The only thing you put in your post HERE is the LINK. If you're still trying to "attach" the pix you're beating your head against the wall.
 
I think I understand, but how come some posts have a picture in them instead of a link?
