Hi Deb,

First, I apologize for using the word "Comments".  You went to the correct box titled "Notes/Caption".  Next, I wouldn't use "Preview", in my experience it causes more problems that it's worth.  You can always edit your upload from your gallery.

Now, from the top:

**Category: ** Select Writer's
Genre:  Select the genre that fits the subject of your work
Select an image to upload:  Leave blank if you have no image
Select a thumbnail (optional):  Leave blank if you have no thumbnail
Image Title:  Enter the title of your work
Notes / Caption:  Type your text, or copy and paste you text here. **
Comma-separated keywords to help identify this image in searching  ** Enter keyword(s) that fit the subject of your work, separated by a comma.
**Where the image should be placed within notes: ** Since you don't have an image, leave in the default position (Align left).  If you ever have an image, I recommend changing this to Align Right.
**How the image should be initially displayed (unless overridden by the viewer): ** Leave in default status.  No need to do anything here.
***Skip the Production Credits section

*****In the Permissions, Options and Advisories section you can uncheck the camera information box, but the second & third box is up to you.  If you want comments and a rating on your work, leave these boxes checked.

Select a content advisory for this image:  This is a mandatory box *** If your work has any violence or nudity (images), select all boxes that apply.  If there is none, you must select 'None'.*

** **I certify that this image is my property and abides by the site's terms of service on violence and nudity. ** You must check the box certifying your work.

Click Upload and Save, and wait until your work automatically appears on your gallery page.

I don't understand why the copy & paste doesn't work for you, I don't have that problem, but for now, go ahead and type your text.  I hope this all works for you now.  I would make one more suggestion that may have nothing to do with anything in your case, but as a precaution, clear your cache.

If you already tried to upload today using Preview, you might not be able to upload again until after 12:00 midnight CST.  That is one of the reasons I don't use it.

Good Luck, and reply here if it works or doesn't work.

Suzanne**
