Hi tried to do as you posted but there is no "register" icon to click on

By far the easiest way is to upload your pic to an external (free) hosting site such as photobucket.com

Once it is there, hover your mouse over the image and a box will pop up showing the various web URL's. You can then copy and paste the right one into whichever forum you want. For this forum you need the one that begins with IMG in parentheses.

A tip is to resize your image either before you upload or after by using the tools on the site. Generally speaking, an image of around 700 pixels in width or depth will look good on a web page and not hog too many resources.

i tried doing what you said drew but on that homepage according ton your instructions there was a register icon to click. When I got there it just said logon but no registering link.

External hosting is far too much like hard work... perhaps i'll just be very descriptive in my threads and you can let your imagination tell the story

did have my own no1 google ranked website with thousands of pics but guess i'll just keep adding fish pics to my facebook !
