Can someone please remind me how I can post a photo here - something that is stored on my computer. I see the image option in the reply box, but don't know how to go from there. Thanks.

The Image feature only works for picture files that are hosted on the Internet.
To display a file that is on your computer:

When in the Reply window, select “Additional Options” – bottom left of screen.

At the bottom of the expanded window is an Attach option.

Use the Browse button to select the desired photo file on your computer.

Then hit “Post” – DO NOT PREVIEW

Thanks!!!

I'm gonna try it now.

Part of this day has been frustrating beyond belief. Before going grocery shopping, I stopped at an ATM which immediately ate my debit card. I had exactly $0 in my wallet.

SO, I had to go back home, phone the bank to report the eaten card and malignant ATM, get a new card on its way to me, and then I wrote a check and headed to the bank so I could have some money in my wallet. It didn't take ALL that long, but I had planned on getting shopping done early and being back home early. As it turned out, I ended back home after grocery shopping at the time I'm USUALLY back home. Argh!

Once I got home and got my Thanksgiving leftovers/dinner prepared (and BOY was it ever good; almost as good warmed over as it was when it was hot yesterday.)

I watched last night's THE MENTALIST while I ate lunch. It was a repeat of the season opener, and it was a wonderful episode. I really enjoyed seeing it again.

Once that was done, I began on my work project - LOST - Season 5 on Blu-ray.

Needless to say, the Blu-rays are phenomenal to look at. If there is any program on TV that comes closest to movie-level production values, it's LOST. Both picture and DTS-HD MA 5.1 sound are reference quality for television, and visually, nothing tops the look of these episodes.

I got all of disc one finished: that's three complete episodes, plus a commentary with the season premiere (which I listened to completely) and a bonus feature called "Starter Set" which basically took five minutes to quickly summarize the story up to this point. I didn't need it, but I watched it anyway, and it was funny hearing all of the tangled plots sorted out in such a clear fashion.

Happy happy happy birthday to DR divarobbie!!!

I got halfway through the first episode on disc two before I stopped.

ABC-TV Blu-rays come with a feature called SeasonPlay which holds your spot when you stop an episode, a kind of automatic bookmark that works beautifully. When I go back down later and start up the equipment again, it'll take me right to where I left off which is a feature not many advanced Blu-rays can achieve.

A delicious Kale dish - pictured below.

Lots of other goodies, too, that I don't have photos of.

I'm hopping off-line now to write for a little bit and then head back down for more LOST. There were sixteen episodes in Season 5, and I'm hoping of getting at least seven of them finished by the time I turn on UGLY BETTY around 9:10 tonight.

Thanks so much for the offer DR der Brucer!! I figured out how to resize and thanks to you, was able to post the photos!

One more question, if you don't mind: Is there a way to post more than one photo in a single post?

Julie · « **Reply #108 on:** November 27, 2009, 01:38:06 PM »

Happy 91st birthday to DR Ginny's mom!!

And, Dear Julie, before you ask -

If you want to embed images within your post text you need to host your pix on the internet. There is a free site - photobucket.com - where you can open an account and then upload photos from your computer to be stored. Once they are in storage you will have an internet link for each photo that you can embed in your text. Your pictures remain private until you provide the link in a post.

Back from errands and whatnot, one of which was pointless since the place was closed - someone forgot to mention that to me. Had some back and eggs, picked up two packages, finished all the prep work for our announcement, and shall now finish liner notes.
