My first try at posting pictures

[liberaldem4ever]

This is my fav pic that was on the cover of Weekly World News. I actually bought the paper at the grocery store and have it somewhere. My son is trying(!) to teach me how to post with pictures. If it doesn't work I have to ask him why. I am very technically challenged.

1. Yeah for me-it worked

I meant to reply to another post and not make a new one. Sorry-my bad.:blush:

2. It works!

So tell me what's the secret? :)

6. My 17 year old son did it for me

I have no idea how he did it. I so very computer unsavy (and shy) that it took me 7 years coming to DU and reading to get up the nerve to post. So I am still learning about how to do all of it. It is kind of embarrasing-I wouldn't have tried if I had realized I was making a new post. Please don't laugh too hard at me.

3. I wish I still had a copy of my favorite cover

The cover said "Hell Freezes Over". I scanned it and redid it slightly and used it as my graduation announcement. A couple of my friends used the "Hell Freezes Over" cover for their wedding invitations.

I, for one, miss the Weekly World News.

12. I missed that one when you first posted it

and that sign just made my day!

There are a few poor imbeciles left in Cambridge but you have to know where to look for them...

11. Congratulations!

Just be aware that some sites are now protecting their bandwidth, so hit "PREVIEW" before you hit "post." It's embarrassing to see your post with one of those little "x" squares in it. You can download pictures from protected sites and park them at a graphics hosting site like PhotoBucket or PhotoDump for a couple of days to be able to post them here.
