Cool

What if any "photo editor" do you have? Tell me what you have and I'll tell you how to use it.
I usually get them on a CD. Some photo programs are easier than others.

Use what ever editor you have to "flip" them over, then go to file, then down to "save as" then give the pic a name and save in your document folder (the easiest, unless you want to create a new folder on your desktop)
Now that you have "saved" it in an upright posistion, it will upload in the upright posistion.

Secondly, you must have them on a web site to post them. Do you? If not try http://www.fortunecity.com
for 20 mb of free space. I can give you help on this too.
Or you can email them to some one (me, if you want)

Now, which "web space" are you using? IF it IS Fortunecity, I use the basic to pick my template, colors ect. then I switch to advanced and use those "browse" buttons to upload. Once you swtich, if you change any text colors (in the advance) it will revert back to the original settings if you go back to basic, but the pics will still be there. I personally stay in the advanced mode once I have chosen the template ect. in the basic.
And I get rid of that stupid door!
If you are using Geocities, good luck! It is extremely slow, and confusing and you can't switch from basic to adavanced. And you are never really sure if it is working or not.

ATST: Okay, I have the files uploaded, but they are in "other files." I would like to place them on my page. But, they haven't been counted in "total spaced used" What do you think? I appreciate your help again...

Cool

This is what the html code looks like on part of my home page.
<A NAME="pic1"></A>
<!-- FCHBpic1 start -->
<img src=
"http://www.fortunecity.com/silverstone/daytona/843/andbadhr11.JPG"
hspace=10 vspace=10 border=0>
<!-- FCHBpic1 end -->
<td colspan=2 valign=top>
<font size=+0 color=
"#0000ff"
><strong>
<!-- FCHBtext1 start -->
O.K. it's almost done and the pics are on <A HREF="page3.html">page 3.</A> I'm also adding polished steel wheel well trim and will have to custom order polished steel bed rails in a shorter length to replace the old ones. Here is what is on now:<BR>Smoked bug and rain guards, Lund Fastback, Running Boards, Lighted Visor, "Chrome" tailight covers, "Chrome look" door edges<BR>Performace mods include the Superchip, K&N air filter with<A HREF="page2.html">
"cool"</A>
intake mod and bosch +4's<BR>
<img src=
"http://www.fortunecity.com/silverstone/daytona/843/fordlogo.gif"
hspace=20 vspace=2 border=0>
<BR>
<font size=+2 <BR><strong>When I pass you, you'll see "Andthensometoo" on the tailgate along with that BLUE OVAL!</strong></font><BR><font size=+2

where you see it say <img src= and then the address of the page("http://www.fortunecity.com/silverstone/daytona/843/)
then the exact name of the pic(andbadhr11.JPG"> )

You can look at my page and see where the pic appears and compare what the codes look like.
If you want, you can email me at Andthensometoo@myf150.com

What in the bloody **** ever happened to "Plug & Play"?
Make a picture, dial it in, send it.
Find a picture, import it, send it.
This is getting entirely too complicated!

Bill, everbody knows that plug and play is better known as plug and pray.
Once you upload the pics, you have to tell the computer what/where they are. Just having them in your uploaded files doesn't maen they will be on a site. However if they are in your uploaded files you don't necessarily need them on a site to post them. For instance if I have a pic named "123.jpg" that is NOT on my site, but it IS in my uploaded files, I could put the address like this: http://www.fortunecity.com/silversto...na/843/123.jpg (you can substitute .bmp for jpg. if this is your pic format and don't forget these ARE case sensitive, some of mine are .JPG or .BMP) and the picture would still post even though if you go to my site it is not on a page. This is because it IS on the World Wide Web somewhere.
The above posting (the one that made you freak out)was showing how to get the picures on your page.
I hope this clears it all up for you.

also don't forget to place [img] before the pic address and [/img] after the pic address to post them here and please size them so that the whole thread won't be stretched out for miles to accomidate your pic.
Past, they will be counted in your total space used once you "place" them on a page.
