Okay, I've sort of figured out how to up load a photo within post quick reply. First I had to go to advanced, then look carefully at the header and you'll notice a paper clip attachment icon, click on that then choose a file. Now the problem is my files are too big for bird forum to post. They appear to upload then BF tells me I have to reduce the size of the photo within photo program then upload it again. All my pics are too big. I don't want to take a photo in low res and sacrifice quality. What a hassle. I see lots of pics posted and my hat goes off too all those who have posted pics. Maybe there's an easy way through this that can be simply explained to a guy who missed the computer train. Thanks for trying, but please don't give up on me just the same.
