How do you add tank photos?

Everytime I try and upload pictures it doesn't let me.

Must be smaller than 125k, save the image as a low quality jpeg after shrinking it significantly (to 20-40% the original size).

If you're not a computer guru try what I do. Email the pic to yourself. Usually the program allows you to resize the pic before sending, just resize it so it'll be OK for the gallery. Then save it at the correct size before uploading it.

you need an internet photo account:

I use www.photobucket.com
Once you have an account--and its free

there will be an upload spot--click and browse to your hard drive and upload the pictures you want--you can do three at a time.

once the images are on photobucket --there will be three tags or codes under each picture
click on the image tag and it will say copied
paste this code into your posts
