How To Post Photos on this Forum

[Cat]

It's hard to see the Add Photo button in this forum on my laptop, so I thought I'd write something here in case anyone else has this issue...


On the window where you will write your post, there is a section called "Add Tags"...

2nd row of buttons, there is one with a framed landscape - 4th button from left (hard to see on my computer!)

Press... you'll see two square bracketed tags for img...

Between the 2, paste the URL to where your photo is online... ie. [thetag]http://whatever[thetag]

If your photo is not online, sites like PhotoBucket are free to sign up and even give you the exact code underneath each photo to simply paste into the message window of forums...


*Just added 26 Jan 2008:

I've opened an account on Photobucket for members to upload their photos and then paste the code onto these pages.
I don't know if that will work smoothly, but it'll take away the step of finding a host for your photos.

I made a members only board for the access info so it's not completely easy for spammers... I couldn't find a place to write it in a Welcome message.

Bugger... didn't work.....

[Cat]

Hmm... try changing your folder name so it doesn't have a hyphen...
Sometimes the web or computers have problems processing those in file/folder names...

When I paste the URL, it works so it's not a typo...

[pia]

Try again then.....

*fingers crossed*

[pia]

Nup... still no good.....

I see a hyphen before Perth on your folder name in the 2nd try still...

OH. Are those spaces between words on your folder name?
Try getting rid of those too so it's just one big name:

Just testing ... I'm gonna search for some old pics on my backups cds and post later. Hey Cat, can't we have a photo as a signature or a photo as a avatar ?
