Thanks.
That's neat that your mother paints kmt_sesh. I would like to take some classes at some point. I learned from books and by just experimenting a bit.
I also did what Sinzi mentioned. I tried to copy a painting from a poster I have in my house. I gave up pretty quickly on making an exact copy  I settled on a piece "very much inspired by".
It did make me look at paintings in an entirely different way after trying it myself.
I wish I had more time for it. Life is just so hectic right now.

I know what you mean by copying a painting. I like to do that but I also end up adding something that raepesents me.  But I think that's the fun of it. As you said, after you finish it you look at it from a totally different point of you. It is great kmt_sesh that your mother, after all these years she still paints. She most love it if she she didn't gave up on that dream. |

You need to put the images on a webserver, so that you can refer to a url.
I have them in a folder on my website at work.
Then you can use: [img] "url of your picture" [/url]

Oops, that should be [img] "url of your picture" [/img]
I hope it works. I would love to see your work.
I did have to use a graphic converter to resize the pictures. What I initially got (from a digital camera) was huge. I turned them into .gif files as well. Those worked better for me qua size and color.
If you run into obstacles, PM me and I can maybe help you.

| Hmm, well there is a problem. What url should I use because I don't have a wepage. There are some sites where you can post your own pictures. You think it could work with that? I"m not very good at this |

The solution to your 'problem' is that there should be no spaces between '[img]' and the url.
