POSTING PICTURES

If you want to include in a post a photo that is already on the internet, first, make sure that the owner thereof doesn't mind (contact me with any questions in this regard, as it is a mixed legal/courtesy issue), and second, download the photo to your computer and upload it using the attachment manager by doing the following:

1) Right-click on photo;
2) Select "Save Picture As ...;"
3) Save it in your directory of choice;
4) Attach the image to your post using the Attachment Manager.

It is a good idea to limit the HORIZONTAL dimension to 800 pixels, even if the vertical dimension is less, as this results in a photo that will fit on the screen without having to scroll sideways.
