What kind of picture do you want to post? An avatar? Or a picture in a post? All members can do both. Typically when you get that message it means the picture is too large. An avatar can be 100x100 pixels - no larger than 25Mb when uploaded from your computer.

Of course, I am pretty cyber clueless. Edited to add, of course, if you fo to the correct part of the control panel, and you figure out what avatar means, then maybe you can upload a pic.

At the bottom of the box in which you enter your REPLY, there is a blue band that says, File Attachments. Browse for the file and it will upload when you post your reply. Make sure the file is compressed to less than 45 mbs. If you need help with compressing a larger file, PT me using the "Inbox" at the top right corner of the page next to MY CONTROLS. The regular members do not have the attachments capability. However if you have your pictures posted on something like webshots or photobucket you can copy the IMG tag in it's entirety and paste it in your post. If the IMG tag is not available on your photo hosting site click the IMG button at the top of the posting window put the URL in the text box --> click OK Then close the tag. A closed tag looks like this [/IMG]

It that correct? (In other words, I can't upload pix from my puter directly into a post???) Sorry to be so dense! Thanks!

Get a free account at Photobucket and upload your pictures there. They even provide a IMG tag that all you have to do is copy and paste it right in your post.
