Topic: picture to site instructions please

[tomatoada]

Can anyone tell me how to get a picture from "my pictures" to here.  I click new topic then images and igm comes up in the box .  What do I do after that please?

Does 'Additional Options' come up (underneath the text box)
If so, click on that and then on 'Browse'.

I tried a while ago... then gave up & carried on using Photobucket.

You have to pay Dan to use the additional options and browse.£10 a year,and last time I looked it was £1.50 a month,something like that.

I pay the £10 as it helps Dan with site fees and makes uploading easy with out using a host.

Yep,working.

[OllieC]

I paid too, still wasn't clever enough to get it working...

I don't mind paying but if Ollie you can't do it I probably won't be able to do  it.

It isn't difficult - I can do it!

To display a picture online, you will needs that picture stored online, so you need to transfer it onto the internet somewhere.

As mentioned, Dan has the facility, for £10.00 a year. Alternatively, you can use any web hosting sites that store pictures for you. Photobucket is one such site, and its free. others include Imageshack, Tripod, Flickr.

I use Photobucket. Just register, and upload. Its quite easy, but if you get stuck, just ask.

Then once your image is loaded on the net, left click on it, select copy, go to your A4A post, left click again and select paste. An internet addres should the appear in you message. surround the address with [ img], [ /img] and check yov've got it right by using the preview button

ie
[ img]www.photoshop.my_image[/ img] (but without the space after the [ )

Also have a look at this old post.

Haha, thanks but I'm not very patient with stuff like this... I just tried again and was told that it's "not a valid picture file...". Soddingwell looks like one to me.

Ollie,when you click additional options it gives you a list of allowed file types,is yours different to what is listed ??
