Question about posting photos

[JaneE]

Hi,

I'm having a difficult time figuring out how to include multiple photos in my posts. I see how to include a single one (and have done so) but how do you include multiple photos in a post with text inbetween?

I've read such posts but can't figure out how to do it myself. I guess if push comes to shove I'll put the photos up on our family's web page and just include a link to that in my post?

I'm somewhat computer-impaired...this does not come in the least bit naturally to me!

Thanks in advance for any help (which will be greatly appreciated). :)

*you insert that by clicking the image iconhttp://forums.teamestrogen.com/images/editor/insertimage.gif (you can click that multiple times and paste the URL of your image)

**an image might be

I use photobucket.com to store mine. It is free and then you can just copy and paste the image code right from there.

this is a video of a rotation of mars - let's see if this works.

and this is the spider web from the C&O canal...

So here's what I did:
At the bottom of the page where you have the open text box window to type a message, there is a box that says Additional Options.

I selected Attach Files, since these images are in a file on my computer and not a url yet. Select Manage Attachments and then Browse to select the file with the image you want to put in your message. Then click Upload.

Next you will see that these attachments show up in the Attach Files box (Still in the Additional Options box) Click on one of the images and it should open up a new window in your web browser, which will then provide a url for that image.

Highlight that url so you can select Copy from the edit drop down (or just right click your mouse and select Copy there)

Now go to the open text box for your message and Paste the url into the message. This will give you something that looks like this:
http://forums.teamestrogen.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=7040&stc=1&d=1220641772

Type your text in front of that message or after it, depending on where you want it to show up. Then use your Space Bar and Enter key to create the rest of your message. You can repeat this with multiple pictures and then click Preview Post - and the pictures will magically appear along with your text. Then you can go down to your message and submit the Reply.

See if that works for you!

You are all geniuses (or would that be "genii?") :-)

I think I get it now. Thanks a million!
