Selma doesn't have image upload ability. I'll give it to her now. This will make a new link at the top (or bottom) of pages called [image upload]. Click on that and it is pretty self explanatory. Don't worry about all the album options, just click 'choose file' - this will pop up a filesystem menu showing the files on your computer - navigate to the file you want to upload and double click it. Now scroll to the bottom of the [image upload] screen and click 'upload'. Might take a few moments depending on your connection speed.
Do you know how to tell the size of a file? You should check this first. Files in the 50K to 100K range are ideal size. Bigger is okay, but please don't upload anything crazy like a 1 megabyte (1000K) file. If you have one that is too big ask for more help and we'll show you how to make it smaller before uploading.
Once the file uploads the system will tell you how to put it in a post. Basically the system gives your photo a number, say 4312, and to include it in a post (or comment) just put &_lt;[4312]&_gt; into the post and the system will do the rest.
Let me know if you have any trouble.
Someday we will make some documentation...
Thanks jim. (see when you ask "what's the worst that can happen?" you get annoying folks like me)
