Here is a thread on how to post pictures directly to the forum:

And here is another picture-posting thread:

This short instruction covers how to resize pictures so that they don’t get cut off at the right side:

[Note: In the past few months, there have been numerous complaints regarding the performance of Photobucket.]

And here is a link to a map of Spider owner’s locations. Many forum members have listed their locations.

Photobucket has been a real thorn in my side for quite some time now....

Flickr (sp?) and Imgur (sp?) have been recommended as alternatives.

Then in your FS.com post, look for the "Img" box at the top of the post, #9 from the left in the row of command icons.

Put the cursor where you want the pic to appear in the post (leave a few spaces after text is a good idea) and click the "Img" button/icon above.

---So you put your cursor over open space in the box and then moved to the Img and click? Do you click in the free space and then click Img?---

Then go to the photobucket.com site (or competitor) and find your pic. Hover the cursor over the pic and a drop down menu will appear. Then click the "Direct Link" or similar button. In Photobucket, it will respond with a "copied" indication.

---Is hover just placing currsor over the picture for a certain amount of time? Thank you---
