I am a low tech girl, but it seems everyone posts such beautiful pictures of their experience, I want to do the same. I've got a couple good shots that I'd like to share. So if someone can walk me through the steps to posting pics -but if not, I'll just post a long boring report about the weather, the snorkeling, the villa, the trips, the sunsets, the bays, the animals, the food, Oh um!!

Bones,

I posted my pictures on webshots then copied their link into my post for that particular picture.

When you have your pictures on Webshots and viewing them, there will be a box on the right that says "link to this picture" with three options. Just copy the address on the third box that says "post in forum" and enter that address into your post.

Now that's just the way I did it, and it seemed to work out great.

I do know you have to have your pictures posted somewhere out on the web. Copy the address and put

For instance, this picture (which you can click on to view the full image):

was done by copying the link from webshots. The actual text for that link breaks down like this (without spaces, I need the spaces in there so it does not come out as the actual link again).

[ URL = http://travel. webshots.com/photo/2067201870011837575eZkXRN] [/URL]

The actual web page address is (no spaces):

http:// travel.webshots.com/photo /2067201870011837575eZkXRN

I hope this helps. Good luck and can't wait to see the pictures !

Bones,

It's really not as difficult as it sounds, if you do your pictures on webshots (webshots.com), just copy and paste the text from the box that says "post to forum" where you want to put the picture in the body of your text. I thought it was going a nightmare also, but it worked for me first time.

Still waiting for your trip report !
