direct photo upload thread album Photobucket.
Also starting to find/learn/use alternatives to Photobucket linking.. The above post's FAQ seems to address photos being uploaded to albums. Can a photo be uploaded more directly into a thread post? Or is the move from album to thread obvious and simple when doing it?
(tip: found some useful steps in the basic Windows 7 software--copy a photo and then use PAINT to crop and then resize)
