Hey and welcome... cute myspace.

Im an old lady so no myspace.com allowed at this address but for people older, it would be a great way of networking and making friends.

No place for my children and I though.

I think in a perfect world myspace.com would be an AWESOME tool. But, too many sickos out there for me to deal with or weed through.

Too bad things have to be the way they are, I had to have someone use a password to get into a Wal-Greens bathroom the other day. Felt like I was being booked. :oops:

And believe me, I would know that feeling.

*takes her meds*

I know this may be a dumb question, but how do I post pics, and post a pic for my avatar. Thanks.

but Mik was able to help me. Give it a day and she'll get the answer
to you.

Here ya go hun:

I use photobucket but you use whom you want. It is WAY easier than it sounds.

1 upload pics to photobucket

2 Paste [img] tag into message box.

3 Hit submit and your picture will show as the new page loads.

That easy so dont let it mess with you.

Here goes:

Images can indeed be shown in your posts. However, there is no facility at present for uploading images directly to this board. Therefore you must link to an image stored on a publicly accessible web server, e.g. http://www.some-unknown-place.net/my-picture.gif. You cannot link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) nor to images stored behind authentication mechanisms such as Hotmail or Yahoo mailboxes, password-protected sites, etc. To display the image use either the BBCode [img] tag or appropriate HTML (if allowed).

It is so simple it is complex... for real, screws with us all until we get our first pic up. Then we are like uhm der. :oops:

Thanks, I'll see if I can figure it out. lol

Ok, well I figured out how to get the link to put the pic. on there, but its REALLY REALLY big. How do I make it smaller so It doesnt take up the whole page. lol Thanks

Resize it in a photo editing program. You can even resize pics in MS Word.

LOL, I think this is getting too technical for me. I dont know that much about resizing pics, or posting pics. Hopefully I will figure it out! Thanks for the help.
