    OK!
    I admit I struggled for 6 mos. to figure out how to post pics here.
    Now anyone can click and post a link.
    I like opening a post and seein pics, not links.
    WHAT's YOUR OPINION?
    Peace Man!

    That's the way it is man. Could be worse.
    When I first started surfing the net this is how it was done. 486 computer if you were lucky.
    Open Trumpet Winsock and dial out. Log in manually with a bunch of text commands that made no sense. This established your connection to the ISP. Minimize that.
    Open a web browser to look around the internet. Back then it was Netscape for sure.
    Used a totally different program for e-mail usually Eudora. Manual log in.
    If you wanted newsgroup access that was another program. Manual log in.
    It was slow, very slow.
    Just try and upload a pic somehwere and then link to it. Would not happen.

    OMG HON I can remember having to do all of that also. Seeing it spelled out step by step like that brought it all back. Oh the trauma ... the time spent logging in like that is irretrievable.
    Now that things have improved though and I have experienced the speed and ease of browse my puter files and upload a pic that isn't a link- that is what I prefer. My .02.
