Hi,
maybe I`m just being thick- but how do I send an attachment to someone either as a private message or e-mail from this site.
thanks Jo

When you are in messaging mode, look at the column on the left side. At the bottom there is a link marked "attachments". Clicking on this will enable you to find a file on your 'puter and add it as an attachment.

I think I went blind. I wanted to send some pics as a PM but I don't see any 'paperclip sign' or a link marked 'attachments'. Actually, I don't see a column on the left side at all

Please have mercy with me and explain it again

if you want to send people files, PM them and ask for their email address.

Then you can send the files via email - much better for you and for the server

Thanks Lob. I wanted to send the pics via email (to save space on the server) but couldn't attach them there either. So I'll just do as you told me

Thanks again, you're my 'hero of the day'
