How Do I Add Photos To A Forum?.


I want to post some photos for a new topic about rusty sunroofs on the Tech forum. Having never done it before I'm not sure how it's done.

Help!!!!

Hi m8,you need to host the picture's on the web for them to work on here.

Try this free picture hosting site.

http://imageshack.us/index3.php

I've done some screen capture's for you to follow.

When you get to the Image shack site press the browse button and it will open up "My Pictures" folder on your PC,click on the picture you want and press open,the "My Picture's folder will close,then press the Host it button.

Image

In the next screen you need to click on the top link to highlight it,right click and press copy.

Image

When you get back here and make a post you need to right click and paste the link,hit the preview button to see if it's worked.

Signature pics and Avatar's

To have a sig pic at the bottom of all your post's you need to host your picture and copy the link(as above).Go to your control panel and press the "Change miscellaneous setting's" button,once there you need to enter your link in to the box like in the below picture with the [img] tags either side of your link.

Image

Avatar's are the small picture under your user name.Enter the link for your picture with no [img] tag's in to the box,see the picture above.

HTH

Cheer's

Andy

It could mean that the picture is over there size limit or it's a type file they don't use.

If you need a resize doing on your picture let me know and i'll PM you my email ady so you can send it me.
