Me too Marie. I'm stuck in the 90's. A chunky old Nokia phone that does nothing and a PC in the study

Yep, that's me too, my DS told me my phone is so old it won't talk to the computer 
keeping my fingers crossed for Christmas

For those that have an iOS device (iPhone, iPod touch and iPad), the newest OS (iOS 6) supports uploading directly now though you may have to do a trick to resize the photo if its too large for here.

Front cams of iPhone and iPad are ok, for larger photos (assuming you don't have an app to resize the photo):

Take photo
Go to camera roll
Share photo to yourself via email
Enter your own address for to
(On iPad tap From/cc/bcc line, choose pic size small/medium/large/original)
hit send
(On iphone on the dialog that appears Select a photo size (like medium))

Open email from yourself.
Touch and hold on photo and then Save (which saves it to your camera roll)
Come here and add photo ...

A lemur, who was at the aquarium we visited the other day. I was taking photos of some others and it decided to use me as a seat for a short time

Robyn, the photos are on my computer now, don;t know what is going on.   maybe i better shout myself an ipad for Xmas too. Gee I'm still having trouble getting around the computer, I downloaded Evernote to save the recipes but I can;t work it.  I must try and remember to ask my DD tomorrow when she comes over..

Oh that was pretty easy tarasis. Thanks for easy instructions.

Hmm shame the pic turned itself upside down. I'll have to remember to take pics with the camera on the left hand side in future  
...yep, that's the way to go. Now I've learnt photo bucket and this today, but think I will this way as the pics smaller than photo buckets

You sound like me Brenda as I am always asking the technology whizz kids in my family.
They start rolling their eyes when I ask the same question again a few weeks later as I have forgotten how to do it!!!

The only way I could get a photo to put on forum so my DS said was for me to take a photo with my phone, text it to him, he would download on his computer when he had time  then email back to me then I could put on forum.  Told him, the food would be stale by then.

Or do people prefer photo bucket size?

[tarasis]

Well if you touch on the small attachment it shows the same size. Though, yes till touched the upload from iPad is smaller looking.

[CreamPuff63]

True     thanks for the tutorial rob, I really appreciate it.

[tarasis]

No probs CP, both are useful to know photobucket is great for putting photos in the midst of instructions but mean people have to download a larger photo, where the attachments are shown as tiny photos and only bigger as needed.

It's all swings and roundabouts *grin*
