Simple, John. When you're in the reply mode, scroll below the main reply box and click on "Browse". Go to wherever you have the pic file and click on it. Then click on the "add file" button and it should load.

That is a great looking 12 fretter, but in honesty, I wouldn't have expected any less from you !

Best regards,
Jack
