Seek, FFL is set up as a Yahoo group such that it enables "HTML pass-through." (Many Yahoo groups are not.) This means that if you are working in an editor that allows you to edit the characteristics of the post and send it *as* HTML, Yahoo will "pass that HTML through" and display it. Some who post from an email reader like Outlook or Thunder- bird can do this because their editor allows them to edit the HTML of their emails. I post using the Yahoo Web viewer at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/> When you reply to a post using that Web editor, the default is "text only." However, if you reply and then click the "Rich Text Editor" link in the upper right, you get a limited HTML editor that allows you to change fonts and font sizes, apply colors or highlighting such as bold or italic or underlining, and even paste in photos *as long as they're on a Web page* somewhere, such as this one: [http://i.imgur.com/8Wb1I.jpg] You can't upload your own photos from your hard drive, except to the FFL photo area. Once there or on some other photo site, you can copy the photo from that site and paste it into your posts. Hope this helps...
