    Press the UPLOAD A FILE button

    GC_PictureUpload1.jpg

    File dialog box appears choose the file (NOTE: You can choose multiple files :) )

    A thermometer bar appears showing upload progress:

    GC_PictureUpload2.jpg

    Once the image has uploaded you can insert it into the post - you can choose to insert either a Thumbnail, or the Full Image (the images are inserted at the cursor, so position that where you want the image and THEN press the button)

    GC_PictureUpload3.jpg

    If your file is larger than the maximum permitted it will automatically be shrunk to the correct size (no more failed uploads Yeah!)

    [note: If you upload massive files - e.g. straight from camera - they may be too large for the system to process and then you WILL get a "Failure" message]

    So are you saying here, it can post directly from my lap top, without moving it to photobucket first???
