Your pics should be sized to 640 x 480

To load a pic

Just below where you would normally write your post there are two buttons, one says options the other says Upload Attachments,
click the Upload attachments,
You should now be seeing a something like this

If you wish to attach one or more files enter the details below.
Filename: Browse Add the file

File comment:


click the browse button, this opens a box on your computer, this is where you are able to find your pic. (All you have to do is remember where the pics normally go when they get loaded onto your computer)
click on the file name of the pic and the forum takes a copy of the pic, you will see the file name in the blank box.
Then click Add the file


All you have to do is put the pic where you want it
If you have a go at loading a pic and then click the Preview button (next to the Submit button) at the bottom of the post

That will let you see where and what the pic looks like in your post.
To add multiple pics just repeat.

If you have any problems you can always email the pics to me and I will load them for you.
If you want to take on the computer in battle Im happy to pm you the battle details any time you get stuck! :D :thumbup:
You can do it......its only machinery :lol:

The pic under/beside the members name are pics of their birds.
This is done via the User Control Panel (top left under Board Index)
Then click Profile
Then Edit Avatar
You picture will need to be the dimensions stated on that page, once you have the pic you just upload from your computer .

Again if you have problems you can email the pic to me and I will set it as your avatar.
