mFrame Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Glad to have you aboard! To post pictures you can either hit the Image button in the full editor toolbar (looks like an old instant polaroid picture) or you can use the image uploader. I really should post a tutorial for this I guess.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
