She can't post pics using a Mac. Can someone please help her?

Shouldn't be any problem, when it asks for pict. To download, open file photo is in, pick it and hit okay. The only issue that may exist is: the pict. Maybe to big (as in bit size) use either a diff. Resolution or just resize it to fit the perameters. Possibly cropping it would solve the issue as well. Good luck.

Photobucket should work for her. She should create a photobucket account, post the pictures there and copy the "IMG Code" link into the Mingle2 post box.

Seeing she's not used to a Mac at all: When mingle asks for the pic. Press the Choose file button (mingle2 window) the Mac finder screen will automatically drop down. browse to the file on the Mac where the pic. Is located, scroll till pic is found ( hopefully they know what file they saved the pic. In) that's Wanted. Highlight that one. Press choose button. That selection will then show up next to the choose file button on the mingle2 screen. Press upload photo button, done deal. Simple. Mac's rule.

Hey y'all thanks for offering to help. What my trouble is, I can open my photo bucket acct, but when I try to copy the img code it won't let me copy it so I can paste to the posts here. I can download and save my pics to the account, but can't transfer them anywhere .

I had that problem with photobucket, try this...make sure that the img is not in capital letters and is in small letters. IMG-no, img-yes. That helped me.
