Very instructive Donna, thank you!

Excellent! But it should read Voila!, not Whalla! about the picture being posted.

BUSTED.

That's what happens when I work on projects with no sleep!

Does anyone know why someone may not be able to copy the URL address, because his 'copy' cannot be highlighted? My only thoughts were that the window was not the active one, or that he's trying to copy from work and they disabled it? Any other ideas?

Donna, I am trying to work with dogsaver on some things to figure out if it is Vista, IE7 security settings or something else.

I have Vista and can highlight and copy the URL address

Val,

I posted two pictures yesterday for the first time and I had no problems at all and I use Vista. I did post them in a different way than how Donna demonstrated. I copied the picture from petfinder ("save picture as"), saved it to my photobucket account and then highlighted the direct link at the bottom and then copied and pasted onto the forum. I'm not sure why poor dogsaver is having problems. I'll admit though, I was surprised I had it to work on the first attempt!

[WiscTiger]

I think I have an idea and it has to do with IE7. I am going to play with it later today and do some screen shots like Donna did and add them here.

I try to do this but when I preview my post before I sumbit it the picture doesn;t show. Is this normal? I delete the link because I assume I did it wrong.

The picture should appear in your preview. Sometimes there is additional text after the extension - make sure the last portion of the link reads ".jpg".
