How can I post jpegs in my posts? I did notice the Manage Attachements button but I'm not sure what to do after that. I would like to incorporate a couple of pics in my post

    Hmmm, I don't have the paper clip! Is it something which the Administrator has to enable?

    methinks he's got a different board in mind. I do it by going to Advanced message edit, and scroll down to the

    click the MANAGE ATTACHMENTS button, and continue from there.

    Niel, somehow CT managed to imbed some images in a posting as opposed to attachments. I think that is the OP's question vs using the attachments facility. see post #26 in ' I have a batt. monitor question'. I dont know how she did it either...

    I think there are two ways to add/embed pics. One is to use the composition attachment feature using the "paper clip" icon. The other way is to use the "Insert Image" button (yellow rectangle with landscap and Sun) to attach an image from a server using a URL. For example, here's an attachment from OutBack:
