Hi, Gary,
Nice job on the DRO installation. May I make a couple of sugestions for loading photos?
I rename my photos with the date and a brief description so I will know what they are; I also keep all photos in separate folders labeled with the original post date and subject so I can access them if needed later. It is also best to crop photos to eliminate "extra" content that doesn't add to what you are showing (see the cropped version of your photo later in this post); phones and computers all have this capability in their included software/apps.
I add photos by using the bar at the top of the posting window:
Click where you want the photo to go, then click the Photo Button:
An Upload Window will open, and you can either drag the photo to the window, or if you are using your phone another drop-down will open giving you options of where to find the photo:
Drag (or select from Library or wherever) the cropped photo to the box and it will appear in you post:
Click on the photo and another menu opens, along with "handles" at the corners of the photo:
I don't use the tools because they can be fiddly:
but instead grab one of the handles and drag to adjust the size of the photo:
Smaller displayed photos take up less space on the page and are easier on anyone reading the post on a phone; if someone wants to see a larger image, all they need to do is click on the photo which opens it in a new window where they can zoom in by clicking on the image again (using you original photo as an example:
Take a look at this post for an example:

And feel free to ask me questions or to reach out to the Moderators.
