I've finally figured out how to get photos scanned into my computer into EMAIL, but I don't know how to get them from EMAIl to online?

HELP!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone know? A simple way?

Thank you- I hope!

Hi,
I believe you need to have them hosted on the internet, somewhere, to link to. Something like photobucket or flickr or something.

I haven't done it but I know some of these services are free.

Surely, someone that has will happen along anytime now. Charlie, for instance. [Wink]

Sarah....I use www.imageshack.com/ to host them.

Just establish a (free) account then e mail them pics and follow onscreen instructions.

You want to use 640x480 to put them on forums like this one.

It doesn't always work and it's often clunky but with perseverance you can post pics. Try 'preview post' on lymenet before you hit 'submit post'.

I'll try to check back in here for questions or maybe somebody has a better hosting site....

Flickr was easier to use than ImageShake. Did not take long to set up a picture either. After the photo was added, I double clicked on my face (picture) and the URL was displayed at the top ribbon. Good Luck.

Well - I am testing it now, but don't see the correct picture as a diplay...hummm. Can anyone tell me what I did wrong? Perhaps the size is too big, but I cannot figure out how to downsize. Any suggestions?
