I'm going to try and make this easiest way to post pictures.

1st, you take a picture on your device, or download one you like:


2nd, you start a post and you get a screen like this:



3rd, you click on the little black cloud:



4th, it opens a screen like this:



5th, you do what the text says or click on the "browse from your computer" if you choose the computer, you will need to know the location of the picture. Once you have found the picture, you can drag and drop, or highlight the picture file and click "open":



Last, once you get the photo over, select a category, agree to the terms and click the upload button. That's it! You will see it on your post, and you can type text above it or under it....then click post.

Tiny Pix automatically will resize your photo and orientate it properly. This is the easiest way, and it saves on server size.

And...whola, just like magic, your picture is in your post



If you decide to try posting straight from your phone. Here are a few things to keep in mind....If you are using a "droid" phone, you will have to take your picture with your phone sideways. Otherwise, your picture will be posted on it's side. IPhones, I'm not sure on, cause I don't own one.....

Either way, you WILL have to resize and get the picture down to less than a Gig. Keep in mind, most phones nowa days take pictures at 10 to 20 Gigs. If you try to load them without resizing, they probably will not load and time out, and you will get a error from the site.

Is this why my picture in my Avatar is sideways? I'm a bit less than tech savvy.

Been awhile since I dabbled with the avatar pic but I believe it needs to cropped down quite a bit.

Just move one of the edges in very little is all you have to do.  It will be straight every time.
