What a morning! I placed my order last week and called the shop to ask a few questions (just a piglet yet, don't know everything), got to talk to Kendra and she said she just left a message on my phone. Turns out I couldn't get the number I wanted 'cause some other HOG had already requested it. It was a bummer hearing it but she was able to get me a low number on a cancelled order! I was grateful. She then took my CC# so I am now in line. I have been thinking about going GOLD and that pushed me over the edge. That and a photo I recently received of the soldier I had given my BME to before he went to the big sandbox! I have seen instructions for posting photos before but it's been awhile. Can anyone help lend a hand and point this old piglet to the instructions? It'd be appreciated! Thanks!
 
PM sent - I'll help post a pic - send it to my email address in the PM.

Congrats on the FBMLE!

Thanks!

Hi! Try something like this

I Copied my original photo (.jpg) to another one so I could edit it without destroying the original.

Then I Edited the copy in MS Office Picture manager, resizing to a 1024 x 768 image size and saved it.

Then went to http://photobucket.com/ and created a new account (free) where you can upload pics from your PC to your Photobucket.com. hosting server space.

I followed the process to locate the pic on my pc and upload the pic into my photobucket account. Then also added a reference/title to the pic.

Copied the URL of the new pic in photobucket - http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f111/webscrounger/CopyofDSC00700.jpg

Then on Bladforums post, after entering normal text stuff, selected the “insert image” (little yellow one on the top right) icon in the Bladeforum post menu.

A popup entry panel will appear where you can enter the url of the pic you just created in Photobucket. Just paste the url in the popup entry panel and then select “OK”.

The pic URL (not the actual pic) will be inserted into the post but you'll see the actual pic when you view or preview the post. Again, the url would look similar to the following: http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f111/webscrounger/CopyofDSC00700.jpg

Once the url is in the post, preview the post. If the pic shows up, you're OK, just save it.


Or, you can just paste the url directly in the post with your text entry. When doing this, the url should be surrounded “” and either way you should get a pic, just like below!


[COLOR=red][IMG]http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f111/webscrounger/CopyofDSC00700.jpg[/COLOR]


Submit the post and the pics should appear.
 
No need to select inset image on bf.
just copy the "IMG CODE" instead of the "URL LINK" from photbucket and paste it directly into message.

Hope this makes sense.
