When I was first on DU, there was a Lounge thread asking for pix of your pets. I said I didn't know how to do that, so a really nice DUer offered to help me out - think I actually emailed her the one pic I had on my computer of my 2 dogs - and she kindly posted it for me! And then she explained how to do it myself using Photobucket - which I've been using ever since. I have quite a collection there now and I've passed on her helpful instructions. I read about this a few days ago in the Photography Forum and have been bummed out ever since.
