Normally, when you post a message with photos attached, the text of the message appears first, followed by the photos. However, it is possible to put your captions under or over each photo by using the "attach" VB Code.

Here are the steps:
1. Open a new thread or respond to a thread.
2. Right off, go to "Manage Attachments" and upload the photos you want in the message.
3. Once the photos are uploaded, leave the "Manage Attachments" window open.
4. Rest the mouse pointer over the name of the photo you want to caption.
5. Look at the bottom of the window and you will see the URL of the uploaded photo -- in that URL you will see "attachmentid=1000" (note, the number won't be 1000 - it will be the attachment id of the image):
7610

6. Then, in the message, use the VB Code to put the attachment where you want it:
7609

Using the VB attach code, you can pretty much put the attached photo anywhere you want it.
