    Hey Todd,

    Let me know if you received an error message. The file size might be too big. You can always go to Photobucket.com and set up a free account. You can upload pictures and make them "Forum friendly" by adjusting the size. They also give you image codes that you can paste directly into the body of your message. Photobucket is also a great way to store pictures for free.

    Let me know if you still have issues.
