Hi. I am sure some of the computer techs here have a much better answer but I had the same problem you did and finally gave up. This year I decided to put my photo business on line and started out with software called AOLPress (free from AOL). You can download it. Well, I eventually decided the free space was not enough so I signed up for a web hosting service and purchase Front Page98. Either one of these programs will upload your jpeg file. Course, AOLPress is free while FP98 is not, but I find FP98 is easier to use. However, if you are only going to upload pictures for family sites and not for business, you can get by with the AOLPress.
