My brother's house

[Ms Grumpy]

I talked to my brother tonight and he said that he got the boiler certified. He actually did all the work himself but had a friend come over and check it out and certify it for him, he was really lucky cause it saved him so much money.

Doing everything himself has saved him SO much money. It helps having a sister who is an electrician, who can certify things also. The only problem he has run into is that the city requires that he have a carbon monoxide detector that has a 5 year battery. He said that he can't find one anywhere. He also has some wiring left to do, he has to wire in the bathroom fan, smoke detectors and figure out what to do about the carbon monoxide detector. He better hurry cause his inspection is on Monday. We are keeping our fingers crossed for him. He will have 5 city inspectors at his house.

1.Just click on your name "shadowgray396"
2.It should take you to your profile page.
3.On the right side of your profile page it should say "Albums".
4.Click on "Albums" (it might say set up albums or new album).
5.Give you album a title and a description (just like making a post here).
6.Choose if you want it public (anyone surfing the site can see) or private (only members can see). I make mine public so I can post links on other sites.
7.Click submit.
8.Click on "Upload pictures" ( you can upload from pictures already on your computer).
9.Click on "browse". This will take you to folders on your computer, pick the folder that has the pictures in it that you want. Then just double click on a picture you want and it will fill in for you. I think that you can upload 5 pictures at a time. But each album can hold up to about 100 pictures.
10.Click "Upload pictures".
11.The next screen will give you the opportunity to put a caption with each picture. Click done when you have finished any captions.
12.You can continue to upload pictures to this album, there is a button at the top or bottom of page that says "upload pictures". Just keep doing the last few steps till you are done.

Once you have an album, you can use the BB code (which is found underneath the pictures in the album, you must double click on the picture in the album to make the picture larger and only then will you find the BB code) to put larger pictures into you posts. You can also place links to your albums.

Thanks Nancy, I started one on our beach house project.
