Hi all- I am feeling like a complete idiot....... I can't get my car pic to upload- I tried different pics, file sizes, etc, none will go- keep getting an error message. Anyone else had trouble, and if so- how do I make it work? Thanks (technology challenged here)

Where are you trying to upload it to? Sig pics need to be uploaded to your Personal File Folder, under the 
button.
If you want, you can e-mail the pic(s) to me, and I'll load them for you, and set them up for your sig pic.
button.

I also had problems. To me it was a complicated procedure.
But I am not much of a computer whiz.
Take Joel's advice and have him help you.

I'll try to help with your pic postings.
First download your pics into your computer.
Then upload them to a storage carrier like. Kodak, Webshots, Flicker, etc. (I use Webshots and that will be my following examples)
Here is my Webpage and you can check it out and see what I am talking about.
TUX'S WEBSHOTS
Here is the link to the Webshots homepage that will allow you to get started if you choose to use them.
WEBSHOTS HOME PAGE
Once you have your pics uploaded into storage you are ready to go.
When you are wanting to post a pic in C3VR click the reply button and enter your message. to post the pic click on the green tree. It opens up a box that you will need to paste a copied path into (later).
Open up you Webshots Album and find the pic you want to post and click on it. You will see a box on the right hand side that gives you some posting options. (size & and paths)
Choose the 200 pic size. That makes it Norsky friendly for C3VR.
Now look for the URL://HTTP path that is for posting the pic with a direct link. Click on it. This will highlight it and now you can right click and copy it.
Once you have copied it go back to your C3VR post and paste it in the box. Click ok, it should show the path in your post now.
Click on the preview box and you should be able to see your pic. If not there is sonething wrong with the path.
These work pretty much the same for all of the photo storage carriers I listed and exactly this way for Webshots.
Try this out and see if you can'y make it work. If you have trouble let me know and I will help you.
Take care, I look forward to seeing some new pics soon.
