You need to have your picture hosted on a website that allows 'link backs' to it. 

I use picturetrail.com. (others are photobucket, flickr, etc) Once your pictures are uploaded then you use the button direction beneath the I(talics) button you see when replying to or posting a message.  When you hold your mouse over the button it says "Insert Image".  You get the "URL" of your picture and paste it into the message box then highlight it and press the "Insert Image" button.   Your picture should then be visible when you post your message.  :-)

Another option - if you click on the Additional Options arrow below the text box it will bring up an Attach block with a browse button.  I clicked on the Browse button, went into my computer, choose the pic I wanted to post and hit enter.  Then I posted and it showed up.   It did not show the pic in the preview screen, but when I posted and went back out to the thread it was here.  I may have gotten lucky, but at least it worked once.   Grin

Freak's luck.  Couldn't even find the spell check yesterday.

My Hubby has a saying:  It is more often better to be lucky, than right.

It has to be a jpg.  I tried with a png. first and it didn't work.

I have tried about 4 times to upload a photo of me in the profile section using the option of uploading my own photo.  I must be doing something wrong.  It is a JPEG photo.  I read the other posts and I'm a little confused, but maybe your all talking about uploading another type of photo for a different space.  Help!

Try reducing the size of your picture, it won't load if it's too big. I had that problem.

ok - sorry but I'm a total dork at these things... how do I  reduce the size of my photo?  I have photos on  Picasa on my computer and I can't figure how to reduce the size to upload to the site?

This is easy...

Reply to this email.....

Write what you want and then just below the box you type in...is the words "Additional Options".  Click on that and you can attach your photo there.

Either that or just send them to us at feedback@bariatrictv.com and we'll help you post them

Thanks Toni -  the other day I found the "additional options" and attempted to upload photos ... it took forever and then  I got a message that the pics were to big.  I'll take you up on your offer... and send the photos to you via email... I appreciate it!

I'm still have problem uploading a photo.  Can't figure what I'm doing wrong.  I'm going to work on it this afternoon and give it another whirl.

Yaw I did.  I used my Mac and it worked however it was the way I held my mouth I'm sure.  I figured this photo is fitting, the reason  for getting healthy.  She is 4 now, doesn't seam possible....
