I'm 48 yrs old and have kept fish since I was 10.
I was trying to identify a catfish
and I had taken a couple of pictures of it and downloaded it to the Kodak shareware but I'm not sure how to get a couple of the pictures I have taken onto the site. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome to PlanetCatfish.

You can't upload pictures directly to PlanetCatfish [it's a financial issue - it would cost more to run the site that way, and since Jools [Julian Dignall, the webmaster here] pays for the site out of his pocket, it would be his decision to allow this]. Donations towards the running costs of the site are welcome! See the bottom of the page.

So, back to uploading pictures: You need to find a site that allows you to upload your pictures, such as http://www.photobucket.com, http://www.imageshack.com, etc.

Once you have a picture on a web-site somewhere, the sites I suggested above have a "link-box" that contains the correct BBCode to post the image on other sites. Just copy and paste that into a post here.
