Here is the list of possible ways I can think of.
1. Ask your friends or relatives to take picture(s) for you and email it to you. After receive it, save it to a folder on your computer and then upload it to NextWink.
2. If you have party pictures that someone sent to you, you can use it too. Make sure you have sought permissions to use from the people who also appear in the photo with you.
If you don't want to show other people on that picture, you can use Microsoft Paint to easily edit it so that only you are on it. Microsoft Paint is available to all Windows - 98/Me/2000/XP/Vista.
3. Do you have a webcam sitting on the top of your PC? Do you know you can use it to take pictures?
Yes, you can use a webcam to take pictures. The picture quality may not be as good as those taken by a decent digital camera, but it's still acceptable for web use.
4. Use your mobile phone to take pictures.
Normally your mobile phone has a USB port that can be used to transfer pictures or video to your computer. Note that not all USB connectors on mobile phones are the same. So make sure that you use a cable with connectors that will fit into the ports on both your phone and your computer.
If you're not sure what kind of connector to use, you can take your mobile phone to the store or company where you bought it and consult them.
You will probably also need software from the phone manufacturer to transfer photos via USB cable to your computer. This software may probably already come with the phone when you bought. Check your photo package to find out, or you may search the manufacturer's website to download it.
That's it. Wish you all the best on NextWink and enjoy your stay!
