I have been considering leaving this Forum because my skills in many things are lacking. My photography skills as shown in my recent images has deteriorated noticeably, I plan on correcting that. I have forgotten many of the things I have learned in Lightroom & Elements because of time away for many reasons, I also plan on correcting that. This Forum is to far advanced in member technology and skills to aide in my recovery efforts along those lines. When viewing topics being discussed I quickly become lost with the relevant knowledge level being tossed back and forth in conversation. I will be returning to the online "Learning Programs" for regaining my once learned abilities, limited as they were.
I wish each and everyone of you success and happiness in your quests in life and success of course within this forum.
I just don't feel a conmfortable, good fit here so I'll be on my way.
When I hit the Create Thread button, I will also delete PSE&M from my Bookmarks Bar.
Thanks to all

Dick, I am in awe of the fact you ran a business for 30 years with 1800 employees! Do you mind sharing what type of business this was? Thank you for your very comical thread here Please see my comment to Bayla dick

Dick, You crack me up! I am under 60 - just - but I can identify with so many of your scenarios! Bayla I didn't author that originally but had it on file as I knew I could get some use out of it.

I did not author this but thought it was funny I won't post such again ,sorry
When I bought my Blackberry, I thought about the 30-year business I ran with 1800 employees, all without a cell phone that plays music, takes videos, pictures and communicates with Face book and Twitter.
I signed up under duress for Twitter and Face book, so my seven kids, their spouses, my 13 grand kids and 2 great grand kids could communicate with me in the modern way. I figured I could handle something as simple as Twi tter with only 140 characters of space.
My phone was beeping every three minutes with the details of everything except the bowel movements of the entire next generation. I am not ready to live like this. I keep my cell phone in the garage in my golf bag.
The kids bought me a GPS for my last birthday because they say I get lost every now and then going over to the grocery store or library. I keep that in a box under my tool bench with the Blue tooth [it's red] phone I am supposed to use when I drive. I wore it once and was standing in line at Barnes and Noble, talking to my wife and everyone in the nearest 50 yards was glaring at me. I had to take my hearing aid out to use it, and I got a little loud.
I mean the GPS looked pretty smart on my dash board, but the lady inside that gadget was the most annoying, rudest person I had run into in a long time. Every 10 minutes, she would sarcasticall y say, "Re-calc-u-lating." You would think that she could be nicer. It was like she could barely tolerate me. She would let go with a deep sigh and then tell me to make a U-turn at the next light. Then, if I made a right turn instead. Well, it was not a good relationship...
When I get really lost now, I call my wife and tell her the name of the cross streets and while she is starting to develop the same tone as Gypsy, the GPS lady, at least she loves me.
To be perfectly frank, I am still trying to learn how to use the cordless phones in our house. We have had them for 4 years, but I still haven't figured out how I lose three phones all at once and have to run around digging under chair cushions, checking bathrooms, and the dirty laundry baskets when the phone rings.
The world is just getting too complex for me. They even mess me up every time I go to the grocery store. You would think they could settle on something themselves but this sudden "Paper or Plastic?" every time I check out just knocks me for a loop. I bought some of those cloth reusable bags to avoid looking confused, but I never remember to take them with me..
Now I toss it back to them. When they ask me, "Paper or plastic?" I just say, "Doesn't matter to me. I am bi-sacksual." Then it's their turn to stare at me with a blank look. I was recently asked if I tweet. I answered, "No, but I do fart a lot."
P.S. I know some of you are probably not over 60. I figured your sense of humor could handle it.
We senior citizens don't need any more gadgets. The TV remote and the garage door remote are about all we can handle.

Yes I can see them both in the posting effort from "postimage",,,,,,,,,,,,, the problem must lie with a compatibility issue between GC and TinyPic. I'm a happy camper again.

I don't know what other forum user's are seeing but I have only the Image Icon in both cases and not a visible Image; This has to be malfunction on my end if you all are seeing a full blown Image.
I right on the verge of doing a complete re install of something on this machine. I have checked into wiping Win8.1 and going back and re installing Win 7 but the possibilty of Driver's not being compatible is stopping that.

Tom I notice you posted a procedure for TinyPic. I had been using TinyPic all along and posting images using Option #2 and not Option #4 as you indicated. In the past I had to use Option#4 to post images to my Gallery,The image that all the trouble with I will attempt to post here using both methods. Let's see what happens. Option#2 Option#4 i58.tinypic.com/11v0gg1.jpg

Well I'll be dipped,there it is. What happen to deleting part of the URL so that it started with HTTP and ended with jpg and also deleting the sxx.#. Looks like two different scenarios and two different sets of directions.I didn't know that.

You mean she no longer work's there and you want to put her replacement in the pic?
If so thats doable so you can hardly tell. I couldn't do it with out doing some research as I've been away but it is not a difficult task I don't think.Nice clear pic BTW

I have done everything I can think of. I thought maybe something common between my wife's computer and mine. The only thing is the router/modem, I powered it down for a reset along with both machines. I put IE on my wife's machine and Google C on mine. The exact same problem exists inside of the walls of this house between the display on our monitors. I have even got completely out of my PSEM and came back in,changed my password and same happens.. Do you think it could be the server that I'm linked to? I know I'm grasping at straws but if I ever find out I'll bet it is going to be a weird one. I was able to add 3 mages to my gallery but can't add to a post ...is there by chance a particular sequence that must be followed for a post? Somebody tell me what you do when adding an image to a post step by step.
