One just has to try to see if it works. If you use a PC make sure you mark the image by right-click and drag the mouse, it should then become blue. Then ctrl + c to copy. Once you are in rich text editor here, press ctrl + v and voila, the image will appear. Good luck :-) --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, authfriend authfriend@ wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, doctordumbass@ no_reply@ wrote: Ann, or anyone else, how do you paste in a graphic so that it is visible?

Before you start typing your reply, above the Reply window, click New! Compose your message with Rich-Text Editor. You'll be put in a different-looking reply window. After you've typed your reply and copied the graphic into the Reply window, look just underneath the window for a little box labeled View HTML Source. Click in the box, and you'll see your typed reply followed by a bunch of code. At the end of the code you should see something like width=500 height=280. Those are the measurements of the graphic, I think in pixels. Figure out approximately how much smaller you want the graphic to be, percentage-wise. If you want it to be half the size, for example, delete the numbers and type in new ones half as big (width=250 height=140 in my example). Then uncheck the little box at the bottom, and you should go back to the Reply window with the graphic half the size. (You want to preserve the proportions of the graphic, so reduce each measurement by the same percentage.) Various things can go wrong--sometimes those measurements don't appear, I don't know why. Sometimes the graphic shows up just fine in the Reply window but doesn't show up in the post. But the above works for me most of the time.

Ha-ha!!

Jesus, I am the last one to ask for technical assistance but since I use a Mac it is easy. You just have to be sure to grab an image off the internet directly. I simply use rich-text editor and drag the damn thing into the post I am making. It is different if you are using a PC. Someone here can explain that one better and I might have made an error in what I said about a Mac, but it works for me, so far.

I've never gotten it to work on an email client. You need to do it from the web site. The hot linking many folks do here is also not considered kosher.

Ann, or anyone else, how do you paste in a graphic so that it is visible? I have tried linking from an online site like flickr, but cannot control the image size, once it appears in the message (often way too big).
