[glow=blue,2,300] Ummm, well hello! I'm brand new and a little lost. Just thought I'd introduce myself. My board needs a TON of help if you're willing and also i just can't seem to get the whole pictures-to-the-web thing going. The only thing I understand is how to hotlink, and it looks like a lot of sites don't like that. Is there hope? Anyone?[/glow]

I don't know what you're talking about, but I think you've come to the wrong place.

okay to get a picture from another site right click the picture and click properties then copy the link there into the picture from another site part in your profile...does that make sense?

sort of, but what if there's no link? or it won't let you lin? it says something about saving the picture onto your computer since it uses up bandwidth if you link directly to the picture.

then save it and upload it that way some sites have limited bandwidth and need to keep it to them selves

Try right-clicking on the picture and saving it on your computer. Then get a free website that provides image hosting (like www.photobucket.com ) and upload the picture there. After that, copy the link to the picture you just uploaded and paste it into your profile. Doing a direct link to a picture hosted on someone else's site eats up their bandwidth and is just plain mean.

That's actually what I was about to do, also.
