My attempt to post pictures

Wilseya, you can't post pictures directly from your computer. You need to upload the picture to a web server somewhere. Most of us use the free service at www.photopoint.com

Go there, register (it's easy), upload your photos there. Then you can link posts here to your page there by using the code. Or you can directly link to ...adeforums.com/ubb/ubbcode.html"]UBB guidlines

UBB is for united bulletin board software, the stuff that runs this site.

Hope this helps...

You lost part of the web address. Is this Your page?

Is this your knife?:

Click on the edit button for my post. You can't edit it, but it will show you how I created all these different kind of links to your page. For IMG code, you need to click through to the final image displayed at photopoint (without a title) and use that URL. That is true for thumbnails too. See the practice thumbnails post in the custom forum for more on posting thumbnails. Good luck!

You keep losing part of the web addy for your page:

AlbumIndex?u=980492&a=11781377

those a=, b=, p=, u= things are all necessary

If that last link was to a particular photo, you must use the code correctly. Read the UBB faq. You must also link to the Last photo at photopoint. Click on thumbnail to get larger image with a title you can edit. Click again to go to the full sized image with No title. To use the [img] code, paste in this last pictures web address in between the [IMG] codes. The last one must be Closed (/img) like this with a / before the IMG. Also use square brackets. (I had to type it using standard parentheses so the software would not actually post a link to nowhere).

ALL of the characters in the address matter. Use copy and paste to move them. Don't retype them. That is way too hard.

Paracelsus, trying

Wilseya,

Just tried to do the same thing for you on the "Thumbnail Posting Thread"...

Good luck and use "cut and paste", it works much better than trying to type a bunch of code in!

Not trying to be mean here and I will continue to give you a hand.

Since we have a thread for practice let's use it rather than start individual threads for practice.

Thanks
