Doh!

I would like to post photos of the (ongoing) restoration of my 1964 Giulia Sprint Speciale. I am having a bit of a problem doing it. After years of using PCs I recently bought a Mac. It has taken me ages to get my photos organised, which I have done using iPhoto. But when I try to use the "Upload an image" link, and click on one of the photos through iPhoto, I just get a message saying something like "No photo found". What am I doing wrong?

I realise this is probably a very dumb question, so apologies in advance..

Save photo to desktop and upload from there.

Mmh, thanks. So where is a photo when it is in iPhoto? Isn't iPhoto just an organisation tool with a link to whereever on the drive the photo is stored? And does that mean "moving" it to Desktop creates another version of the same picture (which seems craxy from a disk management perspective)? I thought Apple stuff was supposed to be user friendly...

Right click on the pic (if you have themouse set to two button ) and then info. You' ll get the disk location there.

It is. Above the reply box click "Upload an image (beta)"

Browse thus: User (your user name) > Pictures > iPhoto > Originals > select your 'year' folder > select your 'month' folder > choose pic.
