Trouble Posting Photos

I read the instructions on how to post a photo, and it worked for one photo, but I couldn't post additional photos as I have seen done here by others. I wanted to post three photos with text commentary for each all within one posting. I could see the first photo with text, but couldn't find a way to insert the additional text and photos. Any suggestions appreciated.

Hi,
This is how I do it because I've had the same problem. The default setting in a post text box is WYSIWYG. There's a button in the post tool bar that has a big 'A' with a line under it and a little 'A' in the top left corner. If you click that button it will switch to code mode. So instead of seeing the picture in your post text box you will see the picture's links. It makes it much easier to insert your text. It looks similar to this:

Code:: [url=http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=212&u=14924947][img]http://i62.servimg.com/u/f62/14/92/49/47/party011.gif[/img][/url]

You can still see your picture in the preview window.

See if this makes it easier for you

If you are talking about inserting more than one photo inn the same message, it had me stumped for a time. I had to play with it as when you go back to the photo insertion box, the original photo links are still there. Just click on the "host it" button at the bottom of the three lines of formatting, and it "resets" itself. I also discovered if the box is covering up where I need to type additional text, clicking on the "host an image" button makes the box disappear.
