When you post your schematic, a hand drawn circuit in jpg or png is far preferable over a pretty Fritzing picture. A schematic is way simpler and easy to understand than a physical layout. The schematic is a functional description describing the flow of operation. The symbols actually describe functions and are read as such, something Fritzing does not. Using Fritzing will reduce the pool of folks prepared to even look at your problem. Do not hurry drawing a schematic, it is a very valuable tool to help you and us understand your project. > [@How to make a schematic you can post.](https://forum.arduino.cc/t/how-to-make-a-schematic-you-can-post/675103): > > When you submit a question on the forum you will usually need to add a schematic (circuit diagram). The tutorial that follows will explain some ways to create a useful image; however lets start by explaining how to add the image to your post. Its easy. Having created the image all you need to do is : Save the image somewhere convenient - maybe your desktop Start your post, and place the cursor (insertion point) where you want the image to be shown; [upload image to forum] 3: click th… (Text from a collection of recent posts about Fritzings). --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.arduino.cc/t/is-this-a-correct-circuit/942840)._
