Hi Sal
heres what you do since you use same as me Photobucket.
Do what you normaly do to upload your pictures in photobucket Except this before uploading pictures.
where it says upload slightly down to the right is a drop down arrow
click it and select this 800 x 600 ( 15 inch screen)
then upload picture
after picture uploads put your mouse in picture and click it.
wait till it loads the picture you just clicked
now, right click in that picture and save that to folder of your choice.
now its done and resized for a thumbnail that we sometimes see in this forum messages.
Type your message and at bottom left corner in blue color you see where it says
Manage Attachments
________________
click that and a window opens up and click where it says Browse to find that picture you just saved to hard drive folder , then click upload give it a few seconds and its done doing that.
Click Post message and bada bing bada boom you did it!!!
If you click preview it will show just a link which actually means it went thru.
Once posted you will see a small picture which is your thumbnail well not your real thumbnail but thats what they call it. You just resized your picture small enough for this message board which requires it to be under 1 megabyte. Now there might be easier way with camera or some other program but since you use photobucket this way does work well for me and once you do it a couple times it becomes easy.
Best Health
