POSTING A PICTURE OR DRAWING

To make a picture which you have on your pc show on the site, there's a useful thread here

To do a drawing, you can use eg MS Paint to create a fairly simple sketch, or MS Word to do something prettier.

Word is fairly easy, especially if you use the Word Grid. To get that showing, from the Word Drawing toolbar, click Grid, then "Show gridlines on screen".
There's a 4 page easy read intro here

Once you have your Word drawing it'll be in a Word document.
Save it, then Save As *.html, or as a Web Page. Then if you look at where you saved it, you'll find a subdirectory has been created, and this contains the drawing in an image file (jpeg or gif). You might want to rename that file, but that's the one to upload to an online image hosting service as in the first link in this post.
From the Image hosting service, you just Browse until you find it.

If you have something on your screen that you want to get onto the site but can't access it suitably, hit the Print Screen button. This will "Copy" the screen to the clipboard. If you then go into say, Paint, and Paste, the "screenshot" will appear.
