To post an image from your computer go to a free image hosting website such as www.photobucket.com and upload your image (you may need to sign up for an account). The website will then produce the necessary IMG Code to post your image up. Just copy and paste the code it gives you into your post where you would like the image. To post an image from the internet: Internet Explorer users: right click on the image you wish to copy and select 'Properties'. Copy the Address (URL). In your post, click [Img], type or paste the address of the image, and then press [Img] again. Firefox users: right click on the image you wish to copy and select 'Copy image location'. In your post, click [img], paste the address of the image, and then press [img] again. Ensure IMG Code is not disabled in your post and the image is not copyright. To post a link You can post a link just by copying the address from the address bar, and pasting into the topic, like this: http://www.example.com/ Avoid using full stops after this type of link as it will add the full stop to the link, and cause it to stop working. You can also use the URL tags by typing code in the following format: Link text The easiest way is to press the [URL] button, then back arrow to get in the bracket, then press equals, paste the URL and then forward arrow to get out of the bracket. Then type the link text and press [URL] again to end the link. Images can be made links by inserting an image instead of , or as well as, the link text. Remember to check your link works, and if it doesn't use the edit button to correct it. Photobucket images can be changed to thumbnails by inserting th_ in front of the filename, for example: http://s76.photobucket.com/albums/j1/mcigroup/100_3859.jpg becomes http://s76.photobucket.com/albums/j1/mcigr...th_100_3859.jpg |
