I use Picasa3 to edit my photos. In Picasa there is an option to add text. It is a great tool and a free dowload from Google. You can even host photos from Picasa online.

I think what you want is to go back into the attachments (paper clip)
and select Manage Attatchments. From there you can select
"Insert All" and you will see it put in all the photos as text. From there
you can cut and paste them where you want.. but be aware that you
need to know which order you uploaded them in.

If you upload 4 pics, it will put all four of them where your cursor was.
They come out labeled in numerical order, so you should write down
what you upload on a piece of paper. (or keep using "Preview" to
see what pic went where!)

I must be stupid I can't find insert all after I hit the manage attachments button.I was told by another to use the papperclip icon to place them in the right spots,but can't find that either.I'm doing something wrong,I'm trying to edit in the advanced mode like I think I'm supposed to be.Ah change and me never really get along well,lol.Thanks again,Victor

You must have already uploaded photos to use that feature, but it is
at the very bottom. (ie. you can't insert all if there is nothing there yet)
Upload your photos first (but before submitting thread) and then go back
to the attachments. It should show each attachment, with Insert All being
at the very bottom.

Victor... when you are editing... Look at the top line of icons... It goes:
Remove formatting
Fonts
Sizes
color
Smilie
Attachment (paperclip)

(mouse over each icon and it will tell you what it does)

on your last post you have two images. It won't show you the "Insert all"
when you go to the attachments? I understand why it won't do it with
only 1 attachment, but two or more should give you that option.
Do you have any kind of blockers on your browser? (not sure that would
make a difference though)

bring up the screen and press Ctrl + Print Scrn (or whatever it is
on your keyboard) that will copy your screen to the clipboard. Then
paste it into your photo program. You can upload that and we
can see it
