jpg and gif's work.... I think.. I've only used jpg.

You have to have the pics hosted somewhere if you want to post them "inline" (and that only works in the uw photo forum). You can also use the "attach file" button to post them as a link. Don't know the size requirements, but I try and keep mine under 50kb. You can resize them using photoshop or, in winxp, at least, right click the pic, select "resize" and select "small".

If you have the pics hosted, then when you are in the UW Photo forum, use the "IMG" button to put the link into your post. Or just put your link to the pic inside of IMG tags....

ex. IMG www........whatever.jpg /IMG with [ ] 's around both the IMG and /IMG Had to remove the brackets because it treated my example like a picture, and didn't show the code.

again, this only works in the forums where allowed... uwphoto is the only one, I think.

The attach file method works in all forums... Just noticed that there is a max file size under the attach file ... max= 102400bytes.
