If they're pictures found online, then put

Code: Select all

[img]www.pictureaddress.com[/img]
If they're pictures on your computer, you'll have to upload them to a site lite imageshack, photobucket, etc. Then put the link as above.

first off, welcome to the forums...

secondly, be sure to read this post, as it would have answered this question for you..

while you're at it, be sure to traipse through these two just to be safe :wink:

once you're done there, Sturat, (our resident gopher), and Tribble, (the source of a virulently infectious strain of spamluenza), always enjoy sharing their pet disease with new arrivals over at the intro thread (use of surgical mask and gloves suggested).... :D

1. Use a fine sandpaper to smooth the back of the picture as well as the surface of your screen where you intend to put the picture.
2. Place a generous amount of superglue on the back of the picture.
3. Place picture at appropriate point on your screen, and hold firmly in place for ten seconds.
4. Behold your handiwork!

The size of your envelope will depend on what you are posting, but basically you lift the flap of the envelope and then slide the picture in.

Lick, fold closed and post.

Yeah.. That was a bit gruesome! :|


There is a very good third way, just ask the picture very nicely, and it should post itself.
