Can you post pics using a scanner or do you have to have a digital camera? if you can, could someone please tell me how?!

Thanks, Jon

jon,
...You cannot post a PIC directly from your computer to this forum. You need to get the PIC posted on the internet and then link to the pic from your post here. You can get your PIC on the internet either on your own or someone elses website or on a photohosting site. I use picturetrail.com and the kingsnake.com galleries to host my photos. I have heard that photobucket.com is also a good photo host. When you go to these sites there are instructions on how to upload PICs from your computer to them. This will work with PICs taken with a digital camera as well as PICs that have been scanned. After your PIC is on one of the photohosting sites you get the addy for it and paste that addy into the "image URL" box at the bottom of your post here on kingsnake.com
Good luck,
Jeff

Do you go to upload photo? because when I do and it says its done, nothing happens.

Jon,
...I do not understand what you are asking. What website are you on when it says to upload photo? When I am on picture trail and uploading photos from my computer to picture trail the picture trail photo uploader goes right into "my pictures" in my computer and I select the picture I want it to upload. If you have a friend who knows how to do this sort of stuff it should be easier for them to show you there at your computer rather than trying to figure it out from the confusing instructions on the website or from the even more confusing instructions I am giving here.
