Just a quick question: When posting pictures, do they have to be from the internet, or can you retrieve it from your computer files?

In that case, how would you write the "[img] [/img]" command in order to post a picture directly from your files?

If your posting from your files, you should turn them into a jpg file.
If you go to my pictures, those files should let you post them.

[img] jpg [/img]

I used to have windows xp, those files were easy.

I have windows Vista now, and that is hard for me.

I have Windows 7, so I'm not sure that's even possible on my computer.

So would you write something like this?:

If it's an image from your computer you'll have to host it online somewhere. Photobucket for example.

Going back to Obegone's original question, it has to be on the net somewhere.

The trees down here are starting to yellow a bit. The mountains have turned a beautiful orange, and we've already got snow up there. It pretty frosty too.
