It's easy--because I can do it.  (Assuming photo already stored on your computer.)

First, hit "reply" or "new post."  Under the dialog box (where you write your message) is a separate box called "attachment 1".  Hit "Browse" on the right hand side, which will take you to the photo storage of your computer.  Then just choose the photo you want, & it will be inserted automatically into this box.  For a 2nd photo, hit the "attachment" button again & a 2nd browse-box will open up.

Just to be clear "choosing" your photo may be a 2 part thing, clicking on your photo and clicking open.

This website restricts the size of photos that can be uploaded. In your photo gallery....open the photo that you want to upload, and then click on "properties," then you should get a menu, and you can click on "resize." After you click on "resize" you can reduce the size of the photo, then click "resize and save." This will give you a smaller photo to upload. Wink

May not be available with all systems.  On my Win 7,  there's no "resize" option under "properties."  Resizing can be done by opening photo in the "Paint" program, but it's a complicated process.

On my new Apple I drag the photo I want to the desk top screen, double left click it to enlarge and at the top of your screen will appear Preview, click on tools, adjust size and on new menu click on pixels and 320x320 for a small photo or larger pixels for a photo the next size up as this one is and ok.
Then to file and export, on another drop down menu I send it to documents where you can find it to post here.

I discovered I have Paint.  I can resize and post if you can't get it as long as the volume doesn't get out of control  Grin

If you have Windows (at least Windows prior to Windows 10) you can double click on your photo to open it in Windows Photo Viewer and select eMail at the top left. A box will come up and give you a choice of picture sizes to select from. You can then send it to yourself and when you get it save it under a new name and use that one to post to the list.

Thanks for the tip.  Just tried it & seems easier than using the Paint program.

The default photo viewer I have with Windows 10 does not offer a resizing that I could find. 

The only way to reduce the size is to crop the photo.  You might have to crop too much and lose some of what you wnat to show to get it small enough  Huh

There’s a free site called Shrinkpicturesdotcom that I use for all my photos.  For one at a time, it’s free; you have to pay to process batches.  I never do batches.

The only trick with the ASSRA site is, Never Use Preview.  It seems to erase my photos when I click on it.  I make sure everything in the typing block is coherent, then add the picture according to directions and post.

Worst O.S. ever devised.  Tried 2 yrs ago to buy another laptop with Win 7 installed--impossible.  I hate M.S., but can't afford Apple.
