Title: HOW TO POST GRAPHICS :-)
Post by: goldfish on May 02, 2012, 10:24:30 pm

Could some kind soul please instruct me (in words of not more than one syllable please!) how you lovely people insert those gorgeous graphics, e.g., on the birthday list?  I get so far and then . . kaput!!   Like everything else, I know it'll be easy once you know how, but up until now I just can't seem to see the bouncing ball - let alone follow it!! ;D

GF, here's the easiest way.
Right click on one of the pictures someone has already posted.  This will take you to whatever website they have used.  Once you are there, have a browse in different sections to see what takes your fancy.  You can do a search for all Congratulations or Happy Birthday pictures.  Once you find one you want to post, click on it.  This will bring it up larger and beneath it you will find links for different purposes.  You need to look for the BB Code for Forums (usually the last code), highlight this code and to copy it, hold down CTRL and press the letter C.  Go to the forum to copy this picture and holding down CTRL, press the letter V.  The code will come up in your box and to make sure it is what you want and you have done it correctly, click on preview to get the picture image.  If all is OK, click on Post and it will appear.  If you have a message you want to write, do that first then add the code and check with the preview button after that.  Hope this is an easy explanation for you.  Johnro was the one who got us all going on this one.

If you have an iPad you can do as judy says then tap on picture to save. You will find it in your photos  so you can use Tapatalk to pop it into a post.
