Posting Pictures |
|
This thread is here to help you get setup to be able to post |
|
pictures here on the forum. It's very simple, free, and once you |
|
do it once or twice it will become a no-brainer. |
|
DIRECTIONS: |
|
1. Go to www.photobucket.com |
|
http://www.photobucket.com |
|
and sign up for a free account. It's |
|
free and only takes a couple minutes to fill in some basic |
|
account info (username, password, email address, etc.) |
|
2. Once you have your account created, you have two options: |
|
A) You can simply upload all your photo's into the main album |
|
(simplest solution) |
|
B) You can create sub albums to better organize your photos by |
|
interest |
|
Either way is fine, the latter just adds a step that I won't |
|
cover here. |
|
3. You should be looking at the "Upload Images & Videos" screen. |
|
Click the browse button and locate the image you want to upload |
|
on your computer. With the image selected, simply click the |
|
Upload button to upload it to your album. |
|
4. With your photo now uploaded you can start posting it here on |
|
the forum. To do this, scroll down on the current page and you |
|
will see a thumbnail of the photo you just uploaded with three |
|
lines of code underneath it or beside it. One of these lines of |
|
code will be what you need to display your photo on a forum, but |
|
which one you need will depend on the forum software. For this |
|
forum you will need the "Direct Link Code" line of coding. |
|
Simply click on that line of code and it automatically copies |
|
the link you need. |
|
5. Now back at the forum (helps to have two browser windows open |
|
when doing this), you can create a new post or reply, and when |
|
you get to where you want to place your photo simply right click |
|
and select Paste, or use the keyboard shortcut of CTRL+V. The |
|
result should be code similar to the following being inserted in |
|
your post: |

|
http://i1249.photobucket.com/albums/h515/Svge92-260/IMAG018.jpg[/font] |
|
[font=verdana]EXTRA POINTERS:[/font] |
|
1. Always leave a blank line before and after your image code. |
|
This makes your post easier to read and prevents your photo from |
|
inadvertantly being inline with the text. |
|
2. Make sure your code always looks like that shown above. There |
|
should be only one IMG tag starting and ending the code, and the |
|
address (URL) of your picture should be between them. Any |
|
deviation from this and the photo will not display. |
