Photo Question

giardiniere · February 8, 2006

Do you have to link to a photo from a site, or can you post a picture from your computer?

**nctomatoman** · February 8, 2006

As far as I know, at this time, you need to have your picture on a web site somewhere. You then call it up, copy the http address, paste into a topic, highlight and then click Img above - and voila! - you have a picture.

Thanks!

To add to what Craig said, you cannot link from another link on another site. It must be a link from the site where the image is physically stored (hosted). :wink:

I'm trying this out, as it didn't work at another topic where I tried it. Thanks for the help.

Yes, it worked this time!

Didnt work for me-dont know what I am doing wrong.

MDVPC, I just joined Shutterfly and transferred one phote to see if I could see how you go from there and I could not figure out how that site gives out HTML and IMG codes.

It may be very easy but I just don't get it either. I must say I prefer Photo Bucket. It simply says click for HTML and IMG codes and then gives several options--ie to use on e-bay, etc or to use on forums, etc. It also allows for click-on thumb-nails or just the straight big image.

Photo Bucket is free too though I decided to join as I like it so much.

Maybe if you add [IMG] in the front and [/IMG] at the end it would work.

photobucket works best for me - I just upload onto their page - copy the "file name in Image box" and paste into message (no IMG needed) ~ Tom

I joined photobucket too. It's easy to download photos to their site, and easy to post them on this site

**mdvpc** · February 13, 2006

What I did was copy just below the photobucket image where it says url, tag, img-i copied the img and pasted it onto this message and it works. dumping shutterly.

This is kimberly from last year.
