Can I post pics directly from my pictures

[ABONES]

Can I post pictures directly from my home computer or do I have to use an image hosting site?

You can, but you'll probably have to shrink them a little first. You may have a "resize" feature in your photo-editing software. Do you see a question asking if you want to make pictures smaller, when you e-mail one to somebody? If so, here's what I prefer over going in and shrinking the photos. I email the pic to myself and answer "yes" when I get the question about resizing. I then "right click" on the photo and put it back in "my pictures" and it's the right size and available to upload to the HAMB. You'll have to rename the shrunken version because you can't have 2 pics with the same name in "my pictures". I usually add an "s" to the front of the original name so I know that's the shrunken photo.
