I'm not familiar with "Easy Share", other than it's a Kodak feature.

I use a Kodak, but I always put my pics onto the computer via the SD card. (remove the card from your camera and put it into the SD card reader on your computer.  Then copy and paste them into a photo file.) 

One problem may be the photo size.  You may need to re-size them, ( I usually resize mine to 640x480).  I use IrfanView,  a simple and quick (free too) download that does many simple photo editing functions.

Then upload them into the photo album here at iKC, using the regular uploader.  Be sure to check the photos help page also, for a detailed how-to.

We'll get you through this though, so don't worry.

Pretty straight forward, and you can add all the information and history that you got on the knife.

Vince,

Loading pics is an easy process.

First,  Click on (Photos) < here.

Up near the top, by your name, click on the  (+Add) button.

Click on the first (Browse) button to add the photo from your computer file. For an additional photo, click on the second (Browse) Button.   (You can add up to 25 photos each day.)

When you're finished  selecting your photos, click on the (Add Photos) button.

When the photos have finished uploading, an Edit Uploaded Photos screen shows up. You can change the title of your pic, add a discription and add tags.  Additionally you can create an album for your photos.  

When you've finished click (Save) and you're done.

After you've uploaded a photo and/or created an album, you can find them with the navigation buttons, on the left side of your  My Page.

If you need any other help with photos, check out the (Photos Help page).

Looks like you did well on the auction.

Be sure to get a few pics loaded onto the site for all us, less fortunate, folks here.

Well Vince.  Now that you've found iKC, be sure to take the half dollar tour.  Check out the groups, there are over 100 to choose from.  When you get around to the photos, be sure to pack a lunch (dinner too, maybe),  there are almost 31,000 now.  Be sure to add some of yours also.

Again, welcome aboard.

Well it just wouldn't be right if I didn't extend a welcome from another Missouri resident Vince, I live just outside the small town of Annapolis. Hope you enjoy it here, if you need any help please let me know!  Steve
