Open up a photobucket free account, and upload, my older Kodak doesn't allow uploading right from the camera so I upload to Picassa which came with my laptop, and then I upload to photobucket. Once they're in there, point at the photo and it will give you four options just click on the IMG line and it will say copied - click in the message area here and paste the link.

Pretty easy - I know some folks use flicker. I've tried the direct upload of pictures right here but I've got to play with the settings to reduce the size of the photo's so they'll upload.

Im a big user of photobucket..

Couple other things you can try.Check your camera menu,for Pic size or quality...most have a setting to change the size to TV screen or comp screen size.. or somewhere around 800x600 or 600x480 is a good size for forum use.. then just use the attachment feature..

One program i use alot for editing or resizing is Irfanview.... Very easy to use and FREE............ http://www.irfanview.com/

Thanks for the link I'll have to check it out. I forgot about that stupid setting in the camera - and when you upload it you can change size anyway.
