How do you post something with a photo

I know how to attach a photo to a post, but how do you post it so that it is displayed automatically.

To include a photo in my post, I would start by doing the text. When done with the text, I then click on the paperclip (top/center this page). Before clicking on the paper clip, locate the cursor where you want the photo.

When you do that, a window opens. Click on the browse, locate the photo you want to attach and upload.

At this point, I normally click on the paperclip, then on the name of the photo which embeds the photo location with the text.

Now I get it. I have to go back to the paper clip and click on the images that I downloaded.

If you wanted the photo image embedded in your post rather than as an attachment, there is a slight change that must be made.

As before, you prepare the text and then position the cursor where you want the photo image to appear (with respect to the text). Click on the paper clip, select browse in the drop down window, load your photo image and click on the paperclip again. You are done. Click on Submit Reply and you have posted the text with an embedded photo.

Nice kitchen. Really nice.

I posted the same photo in the MDF thread. Can you believe that I made this kitchen out of mdf (what you can see anyway). All routered by hand (No router table). Every edge and grove was done with a hand held Porter Cable router. Most of the wood was cut with a hand held skill saw too. I used another piece of mdf for a straight edge or a piece of electrical channel. I had a old greene, but the sheets of mdf were too big to handle by myself.

Trust me, I was not proud of using mdf in the Kitchen, because this was going to be our dream home and retirement home. I just used it to get by until we could afford the good stuff. We got many quotes for kitchen cabinets for this kitchen and the cheapest came in at just over $20,000 and as high as $25,000. I couldn't believe it. I was not going to spend that much money on particle board, and melamine. So I built them myself, and yes, it took a lot of work. I built the boxes out of plywood and faced the edges with maple. The only problems I had building this house were from jobs I contracted out. The policy around here now is absolutely no contractors allowed if I can do it myself.

We had to move because of career changes so the mdf stayed. Unless I told people, nobody knew that it was mdf. It actually stood up very well too.

And the swans?]Are[/B] quite fetching!

The swans are actually made of metal. We were lucky to find them on sale in a small tourist shop in Saint Andrews New Brunswick. I was going to fill that space above the door with stained glass, but the house sold first.

Here is another photo of the swans. In the foreground you can see a large mobile of geese I made out of plywood and hand painted (crudely). At least I used a Shopsmith scroll saw to cut them out.
