I think you can copy and paste with the [ img] box at the top.
or post pics to photo bucket and use the [url]
there may be other ways

you hit [img] then your pic then [img] if i remember correctly

You can't upload photos to this site. They have to be on the web in another place--your own site, Flickr, some photo hosting site like that, and then you can make them appear in your post by linking to the image on that other location.

The way that's done is by copying the photo's full address on the other site, in this form, http://zzz.com/xxxx.jpg (the address MUST end ".jpg") and then clicking the button above the posting window that says "Img", inserting the address after the thing that appears in your post, then clicking the "Img" button again, so that the address is between the two things that appear *almost" like this: (Img)(/Img), with no spaces added.

thanks for clarifying that, between all the websites I can't remember which protocol is which[/img]

I use flickr.

After you get used to the particulars, it's fairly easy. If you start with flickr, and then need the particulars, just re-post and ask - I'll help if I can..

Hello ctviolin:

I used Facebook to upload violin photos. Currently I am trying to brighten up the volume on my Colin-Mezin D string. Do you have any ideas about this task ? Which string brand would have a stronger clearer sound ?

Thanks for any help ... Bozidar
