To: MIKE BLAIS; Mike you load a lot of material into our message board , and it is very much appreciated too. POINT OF REQUEST: Which way do you find is the easiest and quickest method of uploading? I know there are a few different ways of doing it. I have always typed the aarticle on Wordpad or directly into the message area and then transfer to site of choice. Sometimes easy, sometimes difficult. I use Photbucket too but have never thought of using it for the above . Do you find it better to upoad each article to Photobucket first then print photo and article to site at the same time? Thanks. George.

Copy and paste, George, copy and paste.
I find that it is always good to look for a printer friendly version of the article otherwise, after you paste it onto the text page, you have to go through it and delete the reference to pictures or ads. The copy and and paste options, BTW, are on the right clicker and usually available no matter what you are doing... but I'm sure you knew that. 
Pictures must be saved to your computer then redirected via the photobucket site...
Hope this helps you out, George.

Thanks Mike for your information.ou have confirmed my method too. I have been using this method for awhile. I occasionally found it difficult to transfer photo articles. Although it might help if I changed the entry ito read newspaper instead of leaving it at photo,. before printing. I am always tying to find an easier way to do things on the PC. It has some much potential to use. My son in lawworks for IBM in Edmonton. He is one of their top sales p[eople selling Millions of dollars of equipment to many clients. He is hardly ever hometoask questions of . But he says you can do anything on a PC, EVEN CHANGE THE DIRECTION of a persons eyes in a photo. Can you believe that? When i was in Emomnton a couple of weeks ago, my grandson showed a phot he had adjusted that way. You could not tell it was adjusted from the original.
