 how do i post a pic' or link on my thread??

Copy the address from the address bar and paste it into your answer.  Press the space bar and the "link active" line will appear.  Don't just press Return.  If you do the Answerbank gremlins will paste an HTML code (</P>) onto it and then the link doesn't work � don't ask me why they do it.

To post a picture you need to join a hosting site.   http://www.tinypic.com is free.  I haven't done this myself so I can't tell you if this site is better than the others (there have been some others mentioned on Answerbank but I can't find them).  The principle is that you put your picture into tinypic and then put a link to that picture in your posting.

Let's see if this works - http://www.tinypic.com/view/?pic=9s5q14

Seems to, although I don't remember TTT!!!!!! being there in the original.

And I think that this is the link that mycatis wanted to post. http://tinypic.com/view/?pic=9r28qm If you save a webpage onto your PC, Windows gives it a file name that is slightly changed from the web address.

That's interesting - I'm getting a different picture every time I click it!  I'll have to post a question myself.
