.....Another thing. Do I have to upload my pics on to Photo Bucket and then load them on this forum?...
You can upload your photos directly to this site as an attachment to your posted message. When you are entering a message look just below the message box where it says in green "Attachments and other options". Click on that and you'll see a button that allows you to attach photos to your message. Maximum of 5 photos per message, and each photo must be 1mb (1,000kb) or smaller. This means you may need to select a smaller photo size on your camera, or reduce the photo size with photo software on a computer. And some internet browsers now have an option that reduces the size of a photo when uploading it, you can see if your browser has this feature.

Another option is to download an app that will let you reduce the size of a photo. There's plenty of them for free, here's a free one from the Microsoft Store, I think it requires windows 10.

There are free internet sites that will easily reduce a photo for you. You upload the photo to them, then tell them how much to reduce it to (like 50% or 25%, whatever), then you download the reduced version and post it here on NLG. Easy and fairly fast to do, here's one place that makes it very easy:
https://www.reduceimages.com/This place lets you enter the percentage to reduce the photo to and then they give you an estimate of what the reduced photo file size will be. The smaller the percentage you enter the smaller the photo file will be. So enter a percentage that will give a filesize that is somewhere around 100kb, that often works well. But after you've done it a few times you'll see what works best for you. They will also convert the photo file to a png or gif or jpg file, if you need that.

You can also upload your photos to a photo hosting website like you mentioned, then post the link they give you in your message here. By doing it that way there is no limit to the size of your photo file.
