How to upload a picture?

I cant figure out how to do it properly. Is there a simple way for dummies to upload a picture from my computer in its full size? I just recently got a nice camera and would like to occasionaly use it here.

Do i have to host it on Photobucket? can i just upload it? How?

Can someone give me a step by step on how to do it. pretty please?

thank you.. keep in mind that i am old and senile

DG,

I have found this site to be the most useful and almost completely reliable.

imageshack.us...

Once you get them on your computer, you DO have to host them on the net.

There are several ways to do this, including the link I have given you, photobucket, or you could have your own web site and put them there. They must however be hosted "Somewhere" in order to load them here. (Unless of course you have a dedicated server which I'll assume you do not.)

Everyone sleeping?

Okey dokey....maybe tomorrow.

I have a new toy and want to use it- maybe to send a picture of the cat or something.

Yawwwwn...

WHAT???

You didn't like my advice....

Ohhh, Semp,

But when i host them on Photobucket they become tiny fragments of the real picture...why is that?

It's all here:
handbook.abovetopsecret.com...

Probably the settings...

Try Image Shak

They let you choose the size you want

You won’t have that problem with imageshack. Photobucket auto resizes.

The very last one...

"Direct Link To Image"

Then go to ATS

Hit "Post Reply"

Then type [img] Paste the image url

Then type [ /img] (without the space after the first "[" ) and your done..

Yes, you just copy and paste that onto the post.

I use Uploadit.org and I don't have any problems. You can choose between a free account or a Premium account.

To get the picture posted as above I typed this:
[ats]http://premium1.uploadit.org/Hellmutt//SanctSvithun-ed550x378.jpg[/ats]
