How do I add images?
You can add an image in two ways.

1. From an external website by clicking the 'Insert Image' button at the top of the editing window and pasting in the image URL between the 'img' tags.
2. Click 'Attachments' tab below the posting window. Click 'Add Files' to upload images. Then position the cursor where you want the image to appear and click 'Place Inline'

Nick,
I have just tried to post an image by following 'How do I add images' and using Option 2. The file name appears but not the photo itself. What am I doing wrong?

As a separate issue, the system does not seem to accept jpgs unless they are cropped or compressed to about 200kB. I imagine that this may cause a problem for those without compression software. (I am conscious of this because the latest MSOffice update destroyed one of my compression methods!)

A good program for resizing images is Irfan viewer, its a free download & is a very powerful bit of photo editing software.
I mainly use it just for resizing though!
