Okay, I have tried to figure this out, but how the heck do you post pictures on your "posts"? I read the instructions, but I must just be an idiot.
Maybe someon can do a Step 1: . . . . Step 2: .... Step 3 . . . etc. for me. I am not normally this techically challenged, but this has got me stumped.
Thanks.

I am sure there is more than one way to do it. I use Photobucket.
This is what I do:
go to
www.photobucket.com
Set up an account if you don't have one yet. It is painless. Upload a few pictures that you want to try. There are instructions on the site.
Get your BN post started in another browser window, and then on the Photobucket album, pick the picture you want and click on the line below that says IMG. It should say copied.
Then go to the post you started and paste that into the post. It will show up as text and say stuff like [IMG]http:// etc, but when you submit the post it will show up as a picture.Here is a sample:
good luck!

That is Royal Caribbean's private beach at Labadee, Haiti. It's actually on the north side of the island, so that is the Atlantic Ocean.
That was from the top of a 1/2 mile long flight line that started from 500 feet high and ended up on the beach. It was so much fun!

It is very beautiful, hopefully you will get a chance to visit on another cruise.
They are supposed to build a pier, which will make it easier than tendering in, but that will probably be at least 2 years from now.

We hit Margaritaville in Ocho Rios, Cozumel and Grand Cayman in January- had the most fun in Ocho Rios, best decorations in Coz. Most of the Ocho Rios photos are not fit for publication though
