I am having trouble attaching a pic to my post. When I go to copy the pic, it lets me, but when I go to paste it in the messege box, the paste option isn't available.....any ideas?

    You have to post the link for it either as a picture link or a hyperlink.

    You have to hit the hyperlink button or the picture button and then insert what you ahve copied between the brackets.

    I have tried this and it still won't let me paste... the pics are coming off my computer, not another web site, so there isn't an address or link to mess with.

    FANNIN,
    You can NOT post a pic here direct from your computer. You need to have it hosted on a pic hosting web site. If you want it to show up here, Yahoo only works some of the time. http://Photobucket.com is what most people here are using. It's free and easy to get set up with.

    The gene pool needs chlorine.

    I use www.tinypic.com . You dont even need to sign up, just drag the pic to the address bar. If it works (on which I mean format is compatible) a second window will pop-up(some computers may need to hit "back" button). Copy the link and go back to the page where you first draged the pic onto, paste the entire address bar of the new window that came up, then click "host it". It will take a few seconds but when the next page comes up, copy the line that says IMG or image. Then you paste it onto the GB meaasge board. Then when you click on post new reply it will show up to everyone. You can even click preview, and see if it works.


    On a side note if you have ever replied with quote on someone post you may have notices that the pic they used contains the tinypic or photobucket url. That means that they use one of those links and know it works. Hope this info has been helpful.
