This is going to sound dumb but....

I know I've been here a while but I'm still unable to add images to my posts.

I'm a little embarrassed......I should know! It seems to me that I have done it before...........if so, I don't remember how. I'm not sure.....is that less embarrassing?

I wanted to add an image today posting for Happy Thanksgiving. I tried like 63 different ways (might be an exaggeration) and I failed. So many other people seem to know, so I'm hoping that one of you will share the answer with me (and maybe there are others who need to know?).

Well, I did it!!! I swear I tried it this way before and it didn't work.

Anyway, I used instuctions that OC had posted. I don't know where to find it at CC, I had copied it a while back but this is the first time I did it correctly!! Yay!!

~~~These are the instructions from OC (+ 1 addition from me)~~~

How to add a picture to a post:

PICTURE

1-Find the picture on the internet you want to use.
2-Right-click on it and select PROPERTIES.
3-Highlight the ADDRESS/URL from left to right, pulling the curser as far right as it goes for hidden text too.
4-Right click the highlighted text and select COPY.

POSTING

1-Go to 'Preview" post and scroll down to where banner code, font, color, etc. shows.
2-Select the IMAGE ICON
3-Right click and select PASTE and then OK.
(my addition) 4-Click the IMAGE ICON agiain

** Always Preview the post before you hit the Submit button**
