How to add photos

[aussieladybluebirdfan]

can you tell me how to add photos to New topic and repies?

[mistergTRx]

click on the little square that look like a picture, that will bring up this symbol from that you simply insert a link (the direct link) to the photo that you want to upload, but you can not upload direct from your computer, only sites like photobucket

i come across this and borrowed it 

First you will need to sign up to photobucket or imageshak or any other web image host site , then browse your computer and up load pics



Select the pic you need



And click upload or host



Then copy the address of your pic



and paste into your reply and adding the img tags at either end ... note photobucket will do this for you automaticly



Hit the post button and voila its done

great reply sss910.

i recommend photobucket over imageshack. we did have a upload facility on this site but some users *cough*sl*cough*ick*cough* were uploading BMPs that were taking up heaps of bandwidth!!

haha slick you took long enough.. geez the bait was going out of date..

yes +1 for photobucket!

[raprex]

photobucket's easy img code function, just hover your mouse over the image..


click and copy the url,
then paste into your post.

also the scrips for photobucket, this site and others are basically the same.

all you need is the [] with img in it and /ing in [] to end it and you can grab an image from anywhere.

for eg when someone replies with a good old face palm or fail.

all they do is search in google images for what you want



click on the image and open its page, then click on the full size option near the top.



when its open and loaded, right click and select properties








highlight the address and incuide the file extension (.jpg, .bmp etc)



and paste it into your reply

insert the [] filled with img at the beginning and /img at the end (NO SPACES) or highlight and click the insert image icon to do it automatically

you now have the image to be displayed as long as it exists in its scourced location.


eg...



easy peezy!!

but, firefox is much handier than InternetExplorer, since you can
 right click on an image, and select copy image location and then past between the img /img tags
