Ok I feel really stupid by not being able to do what should be a simple task! I have managed to get pictures from my camera onto the computer but that's about as far as I get. I've opened a photobucket account. I can login. I then made sure the "from" area has "my computer" picked. Then I went to "choose files" which then made another window pop up to select the files I wish to upload. I picked the folder that had the photos I want to post. I held the control key while I left clicked on each picture - I see the names displayed in the "File name" area with each click and in the "files of type" area it says "image and video files" with some code stuff beside it but then all I can choose is "cancel" or "open" and if I pick "open" then that window disappears and I'm back to square one! If I hit enter same thing. Should there not be a choice to "ok" or "download"? I do not see the "ivory box" with the code in it that has the title IMG Code as the instructions on this forum mention that I should see if I move mouse over the picture but I think that is once the pictures have been downloaded to photobucket I would see that. I am so frustrated & tired which of course doesn't help the situation ....any suggestions??

Hmmm, not sure if I can be of any help, but first off, make sure you're uploading your photos to a reasonable, usable, size. In the first Photobucket window set it to "Reduce to 640 X 480 (Large)" or smaller. Then click the link under that to try to use the old uploader.

Hello, I feel your pain! Ok, so you are at the photobucket page where it asks you to choose your files and you have 'my computer' checked. -click the blue CHOOSE FILES button -click on your picture from your computer files box (try 1 pic at a time to see if that helps) -click OPEN at the bottom of that box. (Is this where your problem is happening??) -it should say UPLOADING in the photobucket section -it should then take you to a screen of your photo (where you can name it) -scroll to the very bottom of that page and click RETURN TO ALBUM -hover your cursor over the photo -there will be a drop down box -hover your cursor over the IMG info....you can LEFT CLICK and it will copy for you (it will even say copied) -now you can go back to GRA forum and right click in your thread to paste your photos.
Good luck!! If this doesn't work feel free to PM me to see if I we can figure this out.

Thanks so much Midge - the "old uploader" did the trick - it was so easy to follow and did exactly what jiffer said it would do in her instructional post. Thank you to everyone who responded so quickly (must have detected the note of exasperation in my words!) Anyways now I can go picture crazy. I think next time I'll even make them a bit smaller as it looks a tad grainy.
