Many people post their photos directly from their server rather than using attachments. I personally use the attachments still and don't really know why except it's just a habit. A couple of tips to help you.. First, use the save for web command if you are using photoshop and not already doing so. Second, adjust your quality. You arent going to be able to tell the difference between a 70 quality and a 60 in your post and it will help reduce your size. Also photos with lots of pp work obviously are larger and many times will be over the 100 limit at 800 size. Hope that helps.

I upload images to Photobucket which is free. ( http://photobucket.com​/ (external link) ) I upload up to full 8X10's or 10X8's this way.

Copy the [IMG] tag under each photo in photobucket and then paste it here for individual photo's.

You can embed your images in your posts by using this icon

IMAGE NOT FOUND
HTTP response: NOT FOUND | MIME changed to 'text/html'
. Then paste your link from Photobucket and press OK.

Correct. But if you use the "Insert Image" icon I showed above the image will automatically be placed in the thread without me having to click on the link.

You have got it. No worries, you have not been a pain. Sometimes this can be a frustrating thing. Just make sure that if you embed the images like you have done here that they stay under the 800 pixel limit. If you post multiple images, 8 is the max per thread, that you warn others with a 56k warning in the title.
