    Hi Tom,

    No picture, I'm afraid, which method were you trying to use?

    Or you may find the answer here;
    HELP THREAD: How can I post images here?

    Cheers,

    I know I guess I am not sure how to get the image in here.

    Now we can see it Tom and a very nice sunrise it is too ! You might like to try cropping the top part of the sky to see if it improves the composition. Also could I suggest you post a larger picture - say 1200 or 1500 pixels wide with higher quality jpeg compression (say a file size of about 400-500KB). The image deserves a larger view which you will get when you click on it.

    I can see taking out some of the sky. As far as the file size, is this something done prior to posting here? Or is it done when I post? I am new on this site so thanks for your patience.

    Yes it is done prior to posting. Take your full size image in PS and use Image/Resize. Set the width to say 1200 pixels and the height should be automatically set. (You need to have Constrain Proportions and Resample Image checked). Then add some sharpening - probably an amount of about 30 and 0.3 pixels radius. Then save as jpeg with quality setting chosen to give a file size of about 400KB.

    When you are uploading the photo using tinypic, select Default in the Resize box.

    That's about it.

    One other thing Tom, I think the horizon needs a little straightening.

    Looks pretty good to me Tom, especially in the Lightbox (ie when you click on the image).
