Same as anyone else does it.
Host the pictures somewhere like Photobucket, Picassa, Image Shack, wherever, then copy the IMG links and paste them in your posts.

Sorry I'm old for my age, I don't even have Facebook. Guess I got to look in to that photobuket thing!
Thanks for the advice.

I just attach them from my ipad image file... Third item from end in that silly list of icons as you reply/post in text box. You only get to have one per reply, but no need to rely on outside forces.
oddly, it won't work in this general section of the forum easily, but try it in a technical category- f I can figure it out, anyone can. Just attach and hit upload and it usually shows up in your post1981 gs650L

Another advantage of "rely[ing] on outside forces" is that you can have TEN pictures per post.
One suggestion, though, is to limit the size of the picture to no more than about 1024 on the longer side.
That prevents having nto scroll across the screen to see the whole picture.

My iPad is the right way, but I took the picture on my phone. I wonder if it was up side down?
thanks for the advice!

Turn off the auto-rotate button on your iPad. Then take a few pics with the iPad upside down, a few right side up. One is guaranteed to turn out correct on your post.

Looks like the easiest thing to do is remember to shoot with the volume button facing down whether you actually use the button or not. That way at least you know the orientation should be correct. For curiosity sake I tried all photo orientations on my android phone and tablet and posted directly through Photobucket without using a PC and it figured out which way was up all on it's own. I guess by the article this guy figures it's a huge debate why the rest of the digital world is out of step with Apple.
"Your iPhone doesn’t convert any images to the correct orientation because that would keep it busy for a few seconds. Instead it simply saves all photos as they were recorded and adds information about their correct orientation to EXIF tags. This means that your iPhone is ready to shoot another photo within a fraction of a second, which is just awesome. The only problem is that some software developers, including Microsoft, ignore the information that’s stored in EXIF tags. There’s a huge debate about who’s right and who’s wrong in this situation, but I bet you don’t really care about that. What you really want to know is how to solve the problem of your photos appearing upside down."'84 GS750EF (Oct 2015 BOM) '79 GS1000N (June 2007 BOM) My Flickr site http://www.flickr.com/photos/soates50/
