Okay, so I've read enough about posting pics to know that you have to upload the photos to another photo site before including them in posts here... can you include them here if they are already uploaded to facebook? I'm not on any other photo sites (I know it's not a big deal to open an account, but if it's not necessary I'd rather not) and if I could do it from facebook it would be convenient. Anyone have an answer? Thanks!

Yes you can. This picture I took of a bullfrog is being served from my facebook album. I don't know if Facebook really wants people doing this, but it works. In facebook, open up the picture in your album. Right click on it and choose INSPECT ELEMENT
then highlight the part that shows the image source. Right click on it and select COPY LINK ADDRESS
Click the image button here in the message writing thingy and paste your picture source info between the
I use Google Chrome as my browser. Don't know how it would work with any other browser.

Thanks so much, iFloat! I don't have any pics of real interest to post now, but we head back to STJ in five weeks (woohoo!) and hopefully I'll get some good photos then. I see you're headed there in 19 days - lucky duck! - have a super vacation!!

In IE you can right click and use "properties" to get the address of the picture....but Chrome is so much cooler

Okay - giving it a try...
...that didn't work...
I guess I'll just sign-up on one of those other sites once I have some pics to post... but thanks for the help. I'm on a mac, so it's probably different.

Wakey - your dog is beautiful. How old is he? Where did you get him? I have two at home and love them. One is from Germany and one is from the Czech Republic.

Zach was from an American breeder, his lines are German, Schutzhund all the way with a dose of American show on the mothers side. (look at his coat!)

Wakey - thank you for the pics. He was beautiful. Sorry to hear that you lost him from Cancer. They are great, smart and wonderful dogs. I will never be without one again. Thanks again.

Ok - trying the Facebook thing - I have a MAC so I'm winging it a bit - let's see if it works
This is my husband levitating an Heiny Light on Maho if it works

Edited to say - it works! The island is truly magical!
