Good Morning Everyone
 
I have made a Family Siggys Album to store all the siggies I find that have your names on them. You can save yours and make your own album to put them in, or use them from the one I made.
 
To save your own,
Left click on the small (thumbnail) pix to get the larger one,
then Right click on that one and find 'save image as'
and save it to your own computer, then add them to an album you can make in our pictures section.
The instructions for that, are at the pictures board.
 
When you get yours saved, (if you save it) would you please delete it from that album so I can have my own space back? Thanks.
Just click delete at the large pix. You'll see it.
 
(don't forget to save it first though) because I am taking them off my computer, and I'll not have a copy any more.
Thanks
 
As I add more, I'll bump this thread up to the top of the list again,
so you will know you need to recheck the album for your new ones.
 

Adding pictures to your posts...

When you are ready to add your picture/pictures to your post, You will have a reply window or new discussion window open.
Now click on the small mountain and sun icon in the top toolbar...
(in your reply window)
It looks like an envelope under the words Font Style

 

A new window will open and you will see a list of the groups that you belong to. 
It will also have a tab that says "My Computer"

 

You can click on the name of the group where the picture is stored
and then open the folder or album, that it is in...
select the picture/pictures that you want to put into your post and click ""
(you can add several photos at once, if you want to)

 

Or if you want to add one directly from your computer,
you can follow the same steps, only instead of going to one of the 'groups' on the list,
you will click the Browse button under "My Computer" tab and load one picture
at a time from you computer.
But this will use more of your storage space than using an album. 
Please make sure that the pictures from your computer have been resized
to 50 KB or so, this will allow the picture to load much faster for those viewing it.

I hope you find this tutorial helpful.

I have added a few more photos/siggies to the album
As you get them saved, please delete them from the album
 
When you have clicked on the small picture, that shows when you first open the album, you will get a larger picture.
Save the larger (full size) picture, then look above and to the right of your picture, and it will say delete. click that, and it will delete the current picture from the album.
