Here are the instructions posted by Boldts for Posting Photos.

Here is what I do to post pictures and I'll try to keep it simple by listing 1, 2, 3.

1. Copy your picture into a program like Microsoft Image Composer and size the picture to 440 pixsels wide by 280 pixsels tall. This is a good size yet is not so big that it spreads the picture off the screen.
2. Once you have set the size of the picture, then save the picture with a name like: davido01.jpg or doxxxx01.jpg (I don't know your last name, but you can also name the file by using your last name and first initial.)

3. Once you rename the file, save it on your computer harddrive. I use a folder called Pictures on my computer's C drive.

4. Upload your picture file to Donzi.net. At the top of the page you are looking at on donzi.net is a red button called "Photo Posting" click on it and a new page will appear. You will see a "Browse" button. Click on it. You will now be looking at the files on your computer. In my case, I find the C: drive. Double click on it, then double click on my "Pictures" folder. In this folder, I select the file that I just renamed to: sboldt01.jpg. In your case, it would be a file named: doxxxx01.jpg. You can change the numbers as you add more pictures to donzi.net.

5. Click on the "Upload Your Picture" button and your picture will be added to donzi.net.

6. There are 2 ways to place your picture in your post. They are:

7. Type the location of your picture in your post. EX: http://www.donzi.net/photos/doxxxxx01.jpg people who view your post will have to click on the http:// link to see your picture.

8. If you would like to have your post show the picture with-in it, do the same as #7 except put in front of the link and after the link like the following:
http://www.donzi.net/photos/doxxxxx01.jpg


I hope this helps. If you like, call me at (614) 833-0121 or e-mail me and I'll help you by walking you through the process.

Thanks David for helping Sam out. Just out of curiousity, Can you guys not see the button at the top of the screen that says photo posting?

You can see it with Navigator 6 and Explorer 5. Not so with Navigator 4.7 with a Mac.

Problem solved ! My cable provider was using Netscape 4.? which did not support the menue tabs. We just switched to Explorer and wouldn't you now it there they are. I love it when a plan comes together.
