   IPS FORUM LOGO FOR IPS MEMBERS

   There has been a lot of requests recently asking how to get the IPS logo under your name when you post. First, of course, is you need to be an IPS member. Second, you need to let me know you are a member, and that you wish to have the logo displayed when you post. So if you PM me and give me some indication of your member status, I will check it out and make the neccesary changes. If you have just joined, let me know when, and if you can give me a copy of any confirmation you have received, I can initiate the changes more quickly. If you wish to join, click on the link at the very top of the page to the IPS Home Page.

   PART I - UPLOADING A PHOTO Introduction Adding a photo to your forum post is really quite easy. First, some basic facts. To display a photo on the forum, you need to upload your photo(s) from your computer to the Internet. Photos are saved from your digital camera to a folder somewhere on your computer, so you need to be familiar with where they are stored. Photos are technically referred to as image files. Each image file has a unique name followed by a default image extension. For example, an image file from your camera might be labeled: HP0123.jpg The first part, "HP0123" is the file name, and ".jpg" is the extension. The extension represents a recognized image fil…

   To Whom This May Concern: I have been unable to log out of the forum. I also cannot perform any functions while I'm logged in, except for the basic functions of typing posts (I am also unable to edit posts). Any help would be greatly appreciated. I tried to reach out to support in the past, but it didn't work. Therefore, I am posting here.
