Good Afternoon,
Once the pictures are taken with your camera or smart phone, download them to your desktop via USB cable, smartcard or other removable media and save them as a .jpg You can then open them in a program such as Windows Paint and resize them if needed. Then post your topic as Post Reply and that will give you the option to browse your system, find the pictures and upload them.
regards,
Painless

Hello earwig... Another method of posting pictures is to open an account with a provider...like Photobucket... you take your pics ..load them to your computer same method as Painless suggested...then transfer them to the photobucket account... you can then delete all memory from your computer... that way photo tracers cannot be tracked back to your device....anyway once you have transferred the photos to a provider like bucket...you just copy the photo info and paste the info between the bracketed Img icons provided here
You can also edit .. and resize your photos on Photobucket...

Good Luck :thumbup:
