First you need a photobucket account then you can upload your pictures to it and retrieve the "IMG CODE" then where you type (Message box) there is that yellow looking post card up top, paste it in there and then click ok to put into your message box. There may be another way but this is how i do it. Hope it helps..

Here is a fast and easy way to do attach pic's... easy and a free download.

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/windows-xp

Scroll down and locate "image resizer"
Once downloaded... you locate your file picture and right click on it.. choose a size from the drop down menu...(I perfer medium or large)... and click on the box.... done...!!!

Now... to load onto the site you only need to click on "manage attachments"...select your resized pic from your files and click on it and then "open". When you've selected all the pictures you want to download, then click on "download. It only takes a short time, (depending on how fast your computer is) to download.... then hit submit.

hope this helps....

Thanks, that was very helpful. Normally I have to either take the picture in a small size or email it to myself using the "make my pictures smaller" option. I just downloaded the image resizer (found under the POWER TOYS tab) and installed it. Now when I right click on one of my large pictures I have the option to resize it right there. Just right click and select the size you want and it automatically saves a small copy in the same folder.

Note to OP, to attach you can't use the quick reply because it doesn't have the paper clip icon.

harleydodgeman Been real busy today sorry, When you put the IMG CODE in the message box it will show up as text. To see if it worked ok and is there go down to "Go Advanced" and click on it and it will be at the top of page for you to preview, if it worked right just click Submit Reply. Your IMG you put in should have this in beginning

with the photo information in bettween using Photobucket.
I think bluefury's way is better (I didn't know about this way) because of the re-size and im going to try that myself, for me to make pictures smaller i use the email option like Meep said.

Thanks for the link bluefury, sounds like you have the re-size down good, im anxious to see how it works, great idea...probably quicker your way!
