The quickest, easiest way to do this regardless of who your ISP is, in my opinion, is to use www.photoisland.com 's free photo hosting service. Go to www.photoisland.com, and get an account with them (for free). It just takes a minute to register.

Once you get registered, click the link on the left that says "Upload Photos." (You must have the photos already on your hard drive - you'll be uploading them from your hard drive.) Follow the instructions on the Upload Photos page to upload your photos to the photoisland.com server.

THIS IS AN IMPORTANT STEP THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE MISS.....When you have fini********ed uploading your photos to photoisland, click on one of the photos. You will then see a different menu on the left. Look all the way at the bottom of the menu list, for a link that says, "Link for Auction, etc." Click it, and a new window will pop up, with some HTML code in it. Click on the button that says Highlight text. Then hit Control - C to copy it.

This is the reference that you need to make, in order to direct others to see your photo. It is your picture's address on the internet.

So now, when you go back to the board and want to post your picture right on the site, you need to tell the board that you want to post a picture. You do this by using UBB code. Type this: [img] then paste in the http:// address given to you above when you uploaded the file then follow the address with [/img]. No spaces between the UBB codes and the address.

You need to resize your picture with a program that you have on your comptuer (photshop, photoeditor, or any of the various software) and THEN upload to Photoisland.com This is what I must do to get the size I want.
