OT: Picture posting question
« on: May 05, 2006, 01:30:29 am »
Hi friends. I just have a question. The only way I can figure out how to post pictures is to save it to my computer, then attach it under 'Additional Options' at the bottom left of this page. Then they appear like the lovely examples I've provided below, where you have to click on it to enlarge it. How do you post so that it is not an attachment?

there is a little Icon you click that says post image (it looks like a little picture, right under the italicize button) then you'll want to put the url for the pic in between the two brackets, you can get the url by right clicking and going to properties, there will be a web address ending in .jpg , just copy that and paste it!

I hope that helps  :)

Well,

You could either keep a copy of the picture in your own free online photo storage area like Photobucket and link here using the 'Insert Image' button above...Here is a BBM pic from my storage area in Photobucket




or...

Directly hotlink any image you like anywhere on the 'net. Although this is considered a bit rude in the world of netiquette.


Here is an example of hotlinking off some Czech pic site

Is that pic showing up for anyone? All I see is a box with a red x.

Next question: Is there a way to copy and paste that address? I typed it out (and checked a few times to make sure I had it right).

Thanks for the help guys!
