John --

When you click on the message above your 'new post' box that says: 'Click here to upload your file,' a new window will come up that prompts you to 'Browse' for the file you want to upload. Therefore, before you start, be aware of where your file is located on your hard drive, so you can direct the upload tool to the right folder.

Select what type of file it is (.jpg, .gif, etc.), 'Browse' to locate the file, then scroll down in the small window to where you can click on the 'Upload File!' button. (You'll have to change the 'files of type' bar at the bottom of the window to list 'All files,' as opposed to just 'HTML files,' for your gif file to appear in the file list window).

When you click the 'Upload File!' button, the new window will show a "successfully uploaded" message, with a pathname to where the file has been uploaded onto Rob's Calfishing server. Hi-lite the full pathname, copy it, & paste it at the bottom of your post (or in the middle somewhere, if you prefer). When you post it, it's just text, but when you call up your posted message, the image will be there in place of the text.

Try it, John -- you can *DO* it! :-) If it doesn't work right, you can always 'edit' your message & try again.

(It sounds really complicated, with all this verbiage here. Just go through the process once or twice & you'll get the hang of it!).
