Can someone give step by step instructions for posting pictures in here? I’ve tried with the tools below with no success. I’m using a macbook (snowleopard, safari), Picasa on the machine and online.

Here is how I do it...

Go to the photo in your Picasa site, and right-click on the picture.&nbsp; Then select Properties.&nbsp; Select the text in the Address (URL) field, then right-click and select Copy.

Next come back to post message and click&nbsp;on the 'tree' icon below the message field.&nbsp; In the Image URL field, paste the URL you copied from the image properties.&nbsp; You can paste by right-clicking and and select paste in the Image URL field.&nbsp; Note that you can add a description and set the image size.&nbsp; 400 x 300 works pretty well.&nbsp; Then just click on the Insert button.

&nbsp;Good luck...&nbsp; Ron

It actually got awfully close to working..... the address you pasted into the insert photo box went to the page that displayed your picture, not your picture itself.&nbsp; The address of a picture itself usually (but not always) ends in ".jpg" .&nbsp; I'll try your picture, in its original location, using the actual filename.

Sorry to rant...... but don't give up on the picture posting, you're really close and they are enjoyable.
