Suggestions for posting simple sketches/drawings? Was thinking of something basic like ms paint. Have never used it, but I looked at it and I should be able to figure it out.

But I tried and failed to copy and paste a simple square onto a post here. The paste was empty. I suppose I could draw something, save as jpg and then PhotoBucket it, but there must be something simpler.

What do you guys recommend for this? (Not a computer guy -- take it easy on me)

You have to save it (jpeg is fine) then host the picture (photo bucket i'd fine, but i find Facebook to be easier to upload pics to. You can even make an rc album and set it to private so only you can see the album) once it's hosted you copy the image url and paste it here like this:

[img]paste image url here[/img ]
(except take out the space between the last "g" and last "]"

Good luck.

If you have a Star here ($20/year) you get free and much easier image hosting.

Yet another great reason to have a star on RCC

Open rccrawler.com go to where you want the image to upload to. ie.. Posting a pic to the For sale section
Then open another tab,Go to tinypic.com
Click choose file
Choose photo from your images
Click upload button
Pass their secuity bs
After the image uploads right click on the second line,then choose copy (i think it says message boards or something like that)
After this go back to your other open tab ..rccrawler.com choose where you want photo to upload to right click, choose paste.
