Exactly how does one post a photo on here..?
I notice on the far left that there is a photo icon, is that the way..?
and shows like below, so if my image is in my docs or desktop can I upload it that way...?

To be posted directly tp PA your pics have to be no more than 640x480 and 200mb. If your pics are larger they will be rejected. The easiest way is to get a Photobucket(or other photo hosting site)account and have all your pics presized to 640x480. Photobucket is free! These sites are set up so your pics will be accepted at most other websites. Also, you can free up space on your computer by storing your pics on Photobucket.

I have not had any luck posting .jpg files on here (at the correct size even)  and don't like the idea of having to sign up with yet another photo site (photobucket) just to post pics on here but I have had good luck posting .png (portable network graphic) format files (at the correct size) without any trouble at all. You can produce .png files with most photo editing or graphics software.

THAT piece of woodworking is absolutely appropriate to this website.  A bowfront chest!

That is some beautiful work, sir!  Thanks for posting!

Use imgur.com to upload, and copy/paste the link (BBC code) on the forums after you finish the upload.

Cheers thanks for the compliment. The sides are mohagany/maple. top and bottom are poplar with poplar drawers with cherry pulls.  It stands about 14 inches high 7 inches wide.
I sold it for $80.00 which is about $2.00 per hour. You never make up for it labour, just a passtime for fun.

Something tells me that several of the stone knappers in here would love to get their mitts on a chest like that to display their arrowheads and knives!
