a lot of people have pm'd me asking how to post pictures.
so I will post directions here, for everyone to see.
YOUR PICTURES MUST BE ONLINE BEFORE YOU CAN POST THEM HERE
First, Do you have firefox, or internet explorer?
they are different.
if you have Firefox...
right click on the picture
go to where it says"copy image location"
click on that.
when you want to post it on here
click [Img]
then paste
then [Img] again.
done

if you are using internet explorer
step 1) right click on your picture.
step 2) a white box comes up with a list
at the bottom of the list it says "properties"
step 3) click on properties.
that will open up a new box which says..
protocol.....
type..
address...size....
Step 4) highlight all the text after "address"
Step 5) right click on the highlighted text ,
a little white box pops up...
click on "copy"
Now you are ready to post on Imamother...
go to Imamother website (yes you can close facebook, etc.)
step a) click on Img
step b)paste
step c) click [Img] again
voila, you should have your picture!

Gigi - what if the picture isn't stored online anywhere, just on my PC - can I post a picture from my computer?

I myself don't know..
but if you look in the "cutie of the week" post, several people have given instructions for resizing pictures.
also try the computer help help forum.

GAMZu's guide to posting PROPORTIONAL pictures: 
Once it is posted, if it looks like it has been run over by an asphalt paving machine...
->Go back to where you took the original picture from.
->Right click and choose view properties. You should see the dimensions of the photo in pixels there.
->Click edit on your post.
->Within the image code in YOUR POST there will have appeared something like this-- (545:622)
->Replace those numbers with the ones from your photo's properties.
HINT: Usually, is the photo is a 4x6, you can skip all the above steps and replace the random numbers in your post with 400 and 600.
Hope this made sense to someone!
