On the following thread - search for "How do I add an image to my message?" (about 1/3 down page). You could also find the same page in the Help menu (top left hand list on every page). I hope that helps. https://community.breastcancer.org/help

fifth year, I have copied the information from the other thread and here it is.
How do I add an image to my message? One way to add an image to a topic or a post is to click the image icon
in the post/topic toolbar. A pop-up box will appear where you can either:- drag and drop an image from an open file folder from your computer
- load from a file folder on your computer by clicking on the "Browse" button and finding the photo on your computer
Before adding your image, you should decrease the picture size to under 800 pixels wide (about 400 is often better), as it will load faster for others and not need re-sizing.
You may also post an image by using a photo website such as www.photobucket.com or www.flickr.com. Each of these sites explains how to share your images; there should be an option to share your photo, and then an option for an embed code. Copy the embed code and paste the code in your text box. Once you hit submit, the photo should appear.
To re-size a photo, click once in the photo then grab the bottom right corner black square and drag that to the size you want. However, you cannot crop an image – that needs to be done before inserting.To Edit the photo, you click inside the photo, on the EDIT button. Here you can give the photo a Title, insert a link to a website (that can open a new Tab) and choose to have the image on the right or left side.

Yes the tiger is pretty real if you see the painting in person, I have it in my computer room and it looks at me like I am his meal hahaha... Took me a year to paint that. I am working on a painting called "after the bath" originally painted in 1875 by Bouguereau you can google it. Once done I will post it, thanks for viewing, it is a very soothing hobby it occupies my head so I don't go dark places...
