Jenny and Cory,
I'm going to try to explain how I post pictures. Kay taught me long ago. I hope I can be clear...
Type any text you want to include.
Before you submit, scroll down to "Manage Attachments."
Browse and select a picture or pictures from your computer.
Click on "Upload."
Wait until it finishes (note the message telling you to wait). This may take a few minutes.
Close the upload window if it doesn't close automatically.
Copy the entire post to your clipboard in case CF is having problems.
Preview the post. If it works, you will be able to see the pictures in your preview.
Submit.
Now, having said all that, I just tried that and I couldn't get it to work. I have done this in the past, and I think I used the above procedure. CF might be having problems, or I might have left out a step. But I'll post this anyway because it might be easier for someone to correct my procedure rather than start from scratch. And perhaps the procedure is correct and CF is having a glitch.
Okay, now I'll try to explain another way using photobucket. If I am not mistaken, in order to send pictures by pm, we MUST use an account such as photobucket. I do not think there is a way to attach pictures from our computer to a pm.
Add a picture or pictures to your photobucket account. Copy the img file to your clipboard. In my account, the img file is the last of the four options below the picture.
Paste the img file into the message area of your CF post.
Again, I recommend then copying the entire message to your clipboard.
(CF just logged me out as I previewed... but because I had just saved the message, I was able to recover it.)
If it appears normal, i.e., you can see the picture, then post.
Note: sometimes if I bring up my picture files in my computer, and I open pictures, this will completely close my CF account. If I'm not sure what pictures I want to send, it's better to look at the pictures first, write down the file name of the ones I want, and then open CF and complete the procedure WITHOUT opening any picture files in my computer.
Jenny, I'm not sure why your procedure didn't work, and I'm not sure why my first procedure didn't work. I have added pictures both ways before. Perhaps CF is having a glitch, or perhaps I left a step out.
So, are we going to see some pictures from you?
