First, create one or more accounts with Network54. After you take a photo you would to post here, go to your photo editing program and downsize the photo to around 35 to 85 kb. You might be able to get away with loading a larger photo, but I often have problems if the photo is larger than 100 kb.

After you downsize your photo, give it a new file name that does NOT include any spaces or symbols. Thus, "mybulldog" will work, but "my bulldog" will not.
Many people get tripped up on the no-space requirement. You also can't use a name like "my$bulldog" becuz it has a symbol in it.

Next, when you save as the downsized photo with its new name, save it in JPEG format. To do that, look at the white block right below the one in which you typed the new name. To the left of that block, you should see "File Type," and there should be a down arrow to the right of that white block. Click on that down arrow and you will see a whole bunch of different file types you can save the photo to. Select the one that says JPEG or JPEG interchangeable. Then hit your save button. MAKE SURE YOU REMEMBER WHERE YOU SAVED THE PHOTO, such as in My Pictures, a folder you created under My Pictures, or wherever.

Now come back to the message board (but first make sure you are logged into your Network 54 account). Either create a new post (see POST NOW at the top of the messages) or respond to someone else's post. The page that opens should have a big white box for typing in your message, and above that white blocks for Your Name, Your Email, and Message Title. At this point, MAKE SURE you see a button below the big message text box that says "INSERT OBJECT". If you don't see that, you are not properly logged into Network 54.

If you do see it, click on it. A window will open that has "Temporary File" at the top. Click on that. When the next window opens, click on the BROWSE button, which opens a browser window for you to find your photograph you want to post. If you have Windows XP as your operating system, your photo will probably be saved somewhere under "My Pictures" (you have to remember where you saved it back when you did).

Once you find your photo, click it and then hit the OPEN button on that window. You will be brought back to the window that has the "BROWSE" button in it. You will now see your photo's file name in the white box to the left of it. To the right of the Browse button will be an "UPLOAD" button. Click on that and the name of your photo file will appear in the big white space to the right, along with a tiny thumbnail of your photo. At the bottom of that right half of the window, you will see INSERT. Click on that and the file address for your photo will appear in the Message Text block in which you type messages. Now just add your message, if any, and post it.

Good luck.
