Hi Carolyn,

To add a picture to a posting, you will need to have it available on a picture hosting site (such as Flickr or Photo Bucket) or some other website where the picture is viewable. The FAQ & Help section, at the top of the site here, describes how to add a picture:



Quote
In order to add an image to your message or your signature, you must have the image already available on a web server and reachable by a URL. This can be an image on your own personal web page, for example. To place an image within a message, simply use the following Markup Tag:

{image}http://www.url_to_image.com/image_name.gif{/image}

For example, if you have an image called cateye.gif and its available from your own website at http://www.mywebsite.com/pics, then you would use the following image markup:

{image}http://www.mywebsite.com/pics/cateye.gif{/image}

You can do the same for your signature. Click the My Home option found on any page. Then, under the Main Configuration heading, click on "Personal Information, email, password...". Look for the Signature box, and enter your desired information, including any images/markup as above.

Note: To keep the forums loading quickly for everyone, it is recommended that you do not exceed 35k for your image size.


Good luck with your project.

Carolyn - If all you want to do is have a picture of your car show up with your name when you post, you do not have to have the picture on your website - Chevy Chatter can pick it off your computer. Go to "My Profile" and the last section is about loading your picture or avatar. Check the button that says "Upload your avatar" and then Browse on your computer to the picture you want to use and upload it. Hope this helps.
