of people on DU won't click a blind link so it's best to put something descriptive about it, or your feelings about it. But this link, I clicked because I know the source and can tell what the story's about. Just a little advice... Welcome!

5. Right-click on the pic you want to post.

Go down to 'Properties'. Highlight the .jpeg code. Copy it. Then paste it into whatever post you want. (Always preview the post to make sure the pic is up properly. You may need to delete excess code in order to feature just the pic and not lots of extraneous stuff like ///combetlang||\\w.sjucheif()PUT!& )

See if that helps...

said photo/pic, which must be online somewhere. If you have a photo on your computer you want to share, you have to go to a site like photobucket and upload it, then copy the link of that photo and paste it here in a post on DU.

Try it a couple of times and do preview and you'll get the hang of it.

It's a discussion forum like all the others, but we tend to avoid politics in there, when things get too heated in General Discussion or Politics 2012.

It's a place to hang out and socialize.

A Photobucket account is free, and the site will walk you through the uploading process.
