  4. If it's for your avatar, and on a webpage, just right click on the picture, go to properties, and copy the url. then go to your home, and paste the url in where it asks for the link. UBB does it automatically. Doesn't always work right, but it's usually close enuff for me.

    It's really mainly for being ale to e-mail viewable photos of parts to guys who want to buy them.

    I am on Win98 (possible SE) and Outlook Express.

    Download a freeware version of Picasa, it's very easy program, you choose the export size for posting or e-mail and that's it. great for auto organizing pics as well.

    <font color="green">I have found Picasa to be a HUGE memory hog.

    Have you checked to see the resources it is eating up? </font>
