People!!
It's not that difficult to get your pictures here on the Clipper site.
you need to be able to take a digital picture 640 x 480 is a good size to use, any bigger takes to long to view for us that only have a dial up connection. take a good picture, when you are taking the picture get close enough that the subject is the main part of the picture. think about composition when taking the picture.
After the pictures are in your computer, I put them in a folder on my desk top so they are easy to find and have them ready to down load, have them cropped and resized if needed.
next you need to have an account with a place to put the pictures on the web. I use www.photobucket.com its free for up to 4 megs space{I think} that's a lot of pictures if you keep them small.
after you are logged to photobucket {or where ever you are using} go to the place to select the pictures you want from your computer. {brouse}
select the picture{from your computer} and upload it to the site that is going to store the picture.
{these directions are for photobucket}
next after you see the picture on the site check the little box below the picture. go to the bottom of the page on the right is a button called generate tags, click that.
a page will open that has several options I use the one for message boards its down 3 boxes I think it's not one that says recommended.
hi light the text in that box right click on the blue text and select copy
you now have the tag you need to paste in the body of your message on the clipper web site. after you have your message started and you want to paste the tag for your picture have the curser where you want the picture. right click your mouse button select paste. be sure the text in the past goes where you intended to go and don't mess with the text in the tag. that tag is the directions to the picture and when you preview the post you should see the picture in your post. if all works good you did it!! if the picture didn't post go back and see what may have went wrong.
after you have it the way you want your post to look click submit.

Give it a try this is just a quick description from memory. give it a try and if you have any questions Ask someone or myself will help you!!
it's not that hard to do.
