I hope I'm logged in. LOL! :-)

I don't know how to post graphics or pictures

To post a picture, you just need to have one that's already on a website. I'd try to make up pictures of my own, but I don't have a site to host any. But if you want to post something like the pictures on 123greetings.com, you just need to right click on the picture itself. A list of options will come up, and at the bottom of the list you will see "Properties". Click on "Properties" and a new box will come up. It will give the Address (URL) of the picture and the dimensions of the picture. You will need the second number given for dimensions (this is the height).

Then in the box you are typing the post on FR, you type < IMG SRC="url" height="pixel"> except you don't have a space in between the < and IMG. You then copy and paste the Address (URL) where the url is in the code, and you put the second number from the dimensions where pixel is at. Then preview your post to make sure it's working out.

For example, the code that I posted for the happy birthday post was

< IMG SRC="http://img.123greetings.com/eventsnew/birth_wishes/1008-001-128-1060.gif" height="358">

-- only there was no space between < and IMG.

I hope this helps!

I tried posting a picture from C.G. instructions to you the other day and got a red x. I tried several things, even tried to find instructions posted elsewhere on the web. Couldn't figure it out. I'll try yours.

Thank you!
