Hey guys just bought a digital camera,how do I upload a photo?Excuse my ignorance but I never done it before.Thank you!

When you start a thread hit the "Post New Topic" or if responding in a thread hit the "Post Reply" button.

To add a pic to your post you will hit the "Click here to Upload a Photo..." button located toward the bottom of the page.

A pop-up window will appear now appear. Hit the "Browse" button to navigate through your directories, locate and select your digital pic. Selecting the pic is done by double clicking on the file name or clicking once (highlighting it) and hitting "Open".

You are then brought back to the pop-up window where you click on "Upload". This will add the uploaded pic link to your post. Be patient as this can take a few moments.

If you'd like to add more pics repeat the process by hitting the "Click here to Upload a Photo..." button. I believe there's a limit of ten pics per post.

Success is touch-and-go with files other than JPG and/or over 100k in size. I believe GIF and BMP files should work as well but this may not be the case. Large files usually resize automatically.

Good luck.

Thanks Rick!

Don't forget to reduce the picture size before you upload them.
a 5mp camera will average 1.3mb per pic in high jpeg
a 8mp camera will average 3.5 to 5mb.
both of which are too big to show on the web. depending on your computer (win or mac) there are lots of utilities and wizards to help you reduce the size of your pics to around 100k or less. If you need help shrinking the pics then let us know.
