Hi Janet and Judy. I'm in trouble. Just switched from a PC to a Mac. Cannot post my images. Any advice, or do I return to my PC? I am not computer literate my first computer was an abacus Lol Jack

Hi Jack! It's been years since I used a Mac, so I can't walk you through it, but if you're following the instructions Judy posted, where is it different from on the PC? It might help to know where it's not working for you. Hopefully, a Mac user will jump in here and help you.

Hi Jack!
I noticed you used servimg for your last image upload. Is that the method that you're using for your mac? I don't have a mac either but from what I did read so far it shouldn't be any different with the servimg option.
My daughter has a Mac and I will have her bring it over next time she visits but that won't help rite now. Sorry I'll do my best to find out more.

I haven't used a Mac either, but as long as you click on the "host an image" (landscape with blue square in front of it) icon above, I don't see why it would be different.
Janet, in another thread, you told someone how to get the URL from a picture all ready on the web using a MAC. The procedure was slightly different. Do you remember where that was.?

I do remember giving Donna this info but it's not for the imgserv method but for the method where you use the link of image on the internet. Thank you for remining me!
Jack if you want to use that method here's the infor I gave Donna:

Donna, I did a search for how to get the URL on a mac to use the process that Judy mentioned above. Here were 2 suggestions that you might find helpful.
"The way I do it is in Safari...I have tabs enabled and I just drag the image to a blank spot on the tab bar. It opens the image in a new tab with the address in the URL bar"
"If you do this often, it may be better to ditch Safari for Camino...which has a Copy Image Location command."
