2. It has to be on a webserver, then just post the url with your message
and DU marks up the html automatically. Some free servers, like geocities, are blocked by DU though.

If you want to just have a smaller version of the picture in your post as a link to a bigger version of it, here's how to do that.

4. After you scan the picture, resample it to make it smaller
Use a graphics program like Irfanview to reduce the size for those of us on slow dialup connnections (my only choice . . . at 24 kps.) :cry:
