Step 1:
Create a picture file approximately 600 pixels wide (or less) in jpg format with the JPEG quality set to medium.
If you wish you can also create a small thumbnail file about 75-100 pixels wide.
The main picture must have the file extension .jpg and the thumbnail must have the extension .jpe
eg. mypicture.jpg and mypicture.jpe

Step 2:
Click on the link at the top right hand corner of the message index eg. 'NEW LETTER' if you are creating a letter. This will take you to the file upload screen.

Step 3:
Input the caption and filenames, then press 'UPLOAD'
Only one main picture can be included in a message.
If you upload another main picture this will replace the first one.

Step 4:
After uploading the pictures click on 'INPUT TEXT'. This will display a set of boxes for the message text and other details. The main text box will contain a pair of square brackets enclosing the caption.
This shows where the picture will appear within the message text.

You can insert lines of text before the brackets or after.
You can also alter the caption text between the brackets.
If you delete the brackets the picture will not be displayed.

If a thumbnail has been used and there is too much text to fit on the right hand side you can force the remaining text back to the left margin by inserting a special code [text]
