I am certainly no PC spoff and can manage that task myself.

Firstly you need to register with Photobucket or ImageShack [or something similar]
You need to do this, otherwise you won't be able to upload pics onto here.

Once you have registered with with one of the above, you will need to uplaod pics to that site. These site's are referred to as 'image hosting sites' and you can have hundreds of pics on there which will enable you to upload pics onto forums like Scoobynet.

xxxxxxx The Tricky bit xxxxxxxx
Once you have uploaded the pics and selected the pic on the image hosting site, several codes will be displayed something like this
URL=/http///img.413Scoobjpg/img/http/URL

You will then have to 'copy' this code then 'paste it onto the thread on the forum and hey Presto!

Bob is bang on. Basically if you get photobucket, once you upload pictures and select on a certain one, you should have a list, one option is img code, copy that and come back here and paste.

Sure you'll manage purely because I can and I'm really, really crap with computers.

What operating system are you using, Windows XP, Vista, Win 7 - or Macintosh?

There are several ways to resize pictures, let us know what your PC is running & we can suggest solutions.
