It worked, but when I clicked on the link a totally different page appeared, no picture and no bandit info. The stuff in the archives does not have a quote button in the box. Sorry to keep bugging you but I would like to learn how to do this so maybe I could help someone else because ya'll have helped me so much.

OK, if you're trying to post a pic, I would:

1) Put curser on pic
2) Right click
30 Save picture as

Then, when you're replying to the thread, there is a little "paper clip" symbol at the top of your message. Next to that is a little drop down arrow.

Click the arrow
Click "browse"
Select the pic you've saved and click "open"
Click "upload" and close the "manage attachments" box
Click the "paper clip"
Put cursor on the pic and click

That will put the pic in your post.

Are you sure? Unless the thread is closed, you can always "quote" another member, no matter how old the thread is.
