I'm not as computer literate as I want.

What is the simplest way to post pictures?

I'm in the BAP and want to post pics of my fry.

A lot of people still have a problem with posting pictures through attachments. If the program does not like your server or your program it will give you error messages.

I still find it much easier to have a PhotoBucket account. They are free unless you want a gigantic one like me. lol
Having the pictures I plan on posting in a photobucket account means I can have access to them to post on any forum from any computer or my BB.
If you have your photo on a site like that you click the image button above and then paste the link. easy, simple.

Pat,

I do have a photobucket account, but can't seem to get the picture posted on CCA.

I click share and copy the IMG code, then on CCA I click insert Image then paste the code. All that shows up in the printed code, NO picture. But as you can see I got the demasoni fry pic up.

There are 4 codes under the pictures. You want the one called "direct link". Copy that.
Then look above on the post section of CCA screen. 14th item from left on the line that starts with the bold symbol. Thats the insert image button. click that.
Past that in there where it says past link here. You want to cover that HTTP thing thats already there. Other wise you will have two HTTP: at the beginning of the link and it will look like this.....

You want it to look like this....

I concur with Pat, photobucket is your best bet.
