Since the gallery is down, most have just been saying email for pictures, then you send the pics to those who respond. I think you have to have them on a website like the gallery, which isn't working, in order to link them to the ad. I'm an old fart who doesn't know much about computers, though, too.

Here's how. I think.

To insert a picture in your post:
Your picture has to be hosted somewhere on the Web and you need to provide its URL.

If your picture is not hosted anywhere on the Web, upload it to a web site like photobucket.
Your picture will now have a URL that you can use.
Here is how you can find (and "remember") your picture's URL:
 view your picture
 right-click your picture to display its properties
 copy its properties to your Window's Clipboard
 you now have your picture's URL in your Paste Buffer!
To insert a picture in your post:
 click the "IMAGE" button under Instant UBB Code
 a pop up prompt will appear to enter the URL of the picture you wish to insert into your post
 paste the URL of your picture into the pop-up window
 click the OK button on the pop-up window
 the code for the Image is inserted in the body of your Post

Use the Preview Post button to see if the codes work and what your post will look like.

Whoa! GGG must be lots younger than me. I'd just tell people to email me for pics.

GWB, if all that flew over your head, I run my own webserver and I can host your images for you if you'd like, and provide you with the proper code to put in your post. Send me a PM with your email address and I've got you covered.

Not any younger. :(

Not any smarter. :( :(

Just copied a post someone put on the board a few months ago on to my computer. :)

It took me 3 weeks to figure out the "Graemlin Thingy" :D :D
