you have to upload them. a common site is www.photobucket.com.

Look at threads under the photo gallery for tips on how to do it

PS: Steve, how about you make a sticky explaining it and put it in the Photo gallery thread? eh? good idea?

one more silly question while i am at it.
in the profile section, you come to the timezone thing what does GMT stand for ?

Posted: Sat Jul 30, 2005 11:09 pm

You live in PA.. you're GMT -5

bradhart - i actually made an animated gif to show the process but i've been concentrating on the content areas of the site. besides, stray usually jumps in with advice

true enough steve.

And GMT stands for general mountian time. if it's 11:00 GMT, and it's 2 pm local time, you're GMT +3

At least, I think it's general mountian time

close, general mountain time is used in canada & us, but this board uses the international system - greenwich mean time. eastern north america is -4 (daylight savings time) or -5 hours... west coast is -8 or -7 hours. greenwich is 0, and moving east to europe with france being +1 and in asia, hong kong is +8. so if you're in -6 and talking to someone in +6, they are 12 hours ahead on their clocks. something like that.

Oh Wow That Is a Good Question What Is GMT, I live in Boston, Mass. so what time zone should I use. LOL Sry New to all Of this. Thanks

As steve rather throughly said, GMT is greenwich mean time... Greenwich (England) International Date line is.

I would've chimed in but it was already resolved

I had done some research on it about a year ago
