Need help with photos in messages

[ldrandler]

DragonRiders,

O.K., I admit it, I am tech challenged.  I am trying to send a member a PM and put one or two photos in it.  The message part is easy but I can't get photos currently stored in my computer into the message or attached to it.  Any help would be most appreaciated.

Thanks in advance, Les

You'll need to get the photos onto the Internet first somehow, flickr, picasa, photostash, whatever...

Then, type (or cut and paste) the url (http://hubcap.clemson.edu/~hubcap/savannahRide/cotton.jpg for example)
of the image into your message and surround the url with the little image-twinkies that come from the "insert image"
icon (leftmost icon you see above when you're composing a post or message, looks like a picture in a frame)...

It's easy once you see what the deal is...
