photos in threads

[Bailey Knives]

I dont know if I should do this here, or in the other section.

I have been posting pics for a while now, and the only way I know how to do it is to go to the manage attachments button, and upload from my computer. This gives thumbnails at the bottom of the post that will enlarge when clicked on.

I have seen many other people (some of you I' sure) somehow post full size pictures right into the thread.

HOW? please.

Thanks, and feel free to move this to the appropriate location.

HI Derkins

You need to upload your pics to a hostsite,then you can copy the tag and paste them into your post. I use www.photobucket.com, its free and really easy to use.

If I can do it any one can.


hope this helps

After you have the picture loaded onto BFC with the manage attachments function, the picture has its own URL.
You can see all the pictures you have uploaded under "USER CP" at the top of the screen, or if its one you just loaded it will be listed next to the manage attachments button on the page you are writing your post on.

All you have to do is copy and paste the URL of the picture into your post and put

behind it, only use UPPER CASE for IMG

Go to a post where you have thumbnails and open one of them to the larger picture. Then copy and paste the URL/address of the large picture and edit it into your post with the IMG tags. Pretty easy once you do it the first time.

Thanks, I thought it had something to do with code, but I couldnt figure it out. I am going to give it a shot.
