The pic needs to be saved on your computer. IOW, you can't post a pic from another site (though you CAN post a link... different lesson )

So anyway, at the bottom, there are fields to add a photo. It says 'attach images' Click browse next to a field, which will open some folder on your computer'a hard drive. Find the folder with the photo you want and click the photo. It will add the photo filename to the field. Then click upload (or 'post reply'). Voila, your photo should be in your thread.

If it's not, it might be an unsupported file type. LIW only supports .jpg and .gif for some reason, so if you have something like a .bmp extension on the photo file, it will just mysteriously not load.

I hope this made sense? If not, I'm available for questions after class :0)

Not necessarily true. If you want to post a link from another site, right click on the image and then click 'copy image URL.' Then when you're posting, you'll see an option on the bottom left for 'Insert web Image.' Click that, and paste what you copied from the picture.


If you're using files from your own computer and adding them as attachments, make sure they're 60kb or less or else they won't load either.
