trouble uploading photos

photos are sized to 500x 373 pixels

Sorry, I meant upper left hand corner, and all are .jpg

Are you using a Macintosh or a PC? We have complete directions on the home page of Instappraisal. It's best to keep the maximum size to around 600x600 - that way your photo will fit nicely on the page. When you say "all you get is a small icon in the upper-righthand corner," what do you mean exactly? Are you clicking on the little "tree" icon then that's all you get? If you get a dialog after you click the little "tree" icon with a small icon then this is the icon you should then click on to navigate to where your photos are located on your hard disk. After that simply follow the direction on our home page. In a nutshell to upload photos you need to do the following:

Here are the steps:

You will add your images directly into the "Long Description and Pictures" section of your appraisal request form:

1) In this area you'll see a little icon titled "Insert/edit image" Click this icon and the following will appear.

2) Click the little icon avove and you'll then see a window like this appear:

Click on the "Browse" button and navigate to where your file is located on your computer.
Then click on the "Upload File" button. Your file will then be uploaded.

3) Click on the "add" next to where your image uploaded

4) Then click on the "Insert" button and your photo will be added.

Repeat this process for any other photos you wish to upload.
This sounds complicated, but it's actually very simple to do.
