Default Proud Adoption - Help posting a picture

OK. I took a little 250 mile road trip to Wallops Island on the Eastern Shore yesterday and returned today. Stopped at the rest station right after the Chesapeake Bay Bridge tunnel and snapped a few photos. Still purrrrrrring along and not missing a beat. Man do I love this car!

Trying to post one of the pictures I took, but I am unable or not capable.

When I click the "insert image" icon I am asked to enter the "URL" for my Image. Not sure what that is as the photos are saved into a folder on my hard drive??

Also tried to simply execute a copy and past of the photo in the body of the message, but it does not work.

Now, pretty clear that I'm not a computer whiz... so how do I post a picture. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Ray

Welcome to the forum Ray, for full details of how to post pics visit this link.

Without going into to much detail basically there are two methods, 1 directly from your PC, 2, from a pic hosting site.

For direct posting follow the instructions in the link above.

Come back if you need a walk through, we will help you.

Default More Pics of Ray's '01 XJR

Hi everyone,

Thanks for all the help ...still not very good with this posting stuff yet.

Not quite sure how to post them larger.... not seeing it...

I tried the but don't find the "copy image location" when I right click on the photo...as I said earlier, I am no computer whiz...actually, I am pretty lucky just to be able to turn this thing on!!

I very much appreciate the ability to view more specific content.

I took a little time out this moring to stop driving the XJR long enough to take a few more pictures.

So.. and with out further ado... here is my kitty..

I think you can click on the small pictures and they will be displayed as larger pics... One day soon I will get it. Like a light being switched on!

....I love the smell of priemum grade petrol in the morning

... smells like... I don't know...Victory

Kindest regards,

Ray
