Using the forum is not really that difficult once you get the hang of posting and uploading images. There are many picture hosting sites out there, I just use Photobucket.com because it is really easy to use.
For the purpose of this tutorial, I will be using Photobucket. You can sign up for a FREE account and start uploading your pictures immediately at: www.photobucket.com
Loading Pictures to the Forum:
1. Create your user account.
2. Upload pictures from your computer.
a. Click "Browse" to find pictures.
b. Enter Photo name in "Description".
---OR---
c. Click "Keep original names."
3. Scroll down and find picture you want to post.
4. Right click and highlight "IMG" tag at the bottom of the picture.
5. Right click and "COPY."
6. Open forum.
7. Pick the gallery where you want to post your picture.
8. Click "New Topic" at the top left-hand side of the screen.
9. Type the title of your picture in the Subject line.
10. Enter text as desired.
11. When ready to insert photo, right click and hit "Paste."
12. Check appropriate boxes and click "Submit."
13. You are finished!

Although we do not have a set size for the forum,
I like to keep my pictures in the 500X375 range.
Sometimes they are a little bigger and sometimes a little
smaller. I try to steer away from anything that is larger
than 600 pixels because then it takes a while for the photo
to load and takes up a lot of bandwidth. Hope this helps!
