Posting pics?

RwWilly · Jan 11, 2013

Trying to post a few pics. Did the FAQs and search. Is there a min. post prior to allowing pictures? I don't have the "Album pic" link on the User CP page.
Any thoughts? Thanks

Sign up for photobucket after you upload the pictures use the link on the bottom right of on the photobucket page. Copy it and click the yellow mountain above the text box. Paste the link there and you have a picture

I posted this on my local jeep club forum. Hope it helps:

I thought I'd do a quick primer for you new folks on how this, and most, forums work. First off, welcome!

POSTING PICTURES:

Choose a photo hosting site:

http://www.photobucket.com (my site of choice)
http://www.flickr.com
http://www.imageshack.us
http://www.tinypic.com

1. Register (it's free, registration is similar to registering here)
2. Upload (via the instructions on the home screen after registration) your photos from your computer, smart phone, or even from the nether regions of the internet.
3. Copy then paste the [ img]url link of picture[/ img] code for the picture you want into your post. Make sure the picture isn't gigantic. You can change this from the "edit" option at the top of the picture in question, an ideal picture size for forum use is 800x600, DON'T post pictures much larger than this....it's bad forum etiquette and just looks like crap.

PM me if you have further questions.

That seems to be the biggest question for less experienced computer users. Now let's move on to some other questions.

The image host imgur is good, fast, reliable and doesnt require registration.

After a half hour of clicking around, I managed to attach the above. Yet another 32 ACP; this one won't be arriving real soon, but it's worth waiting for, IMO.

If you copy the bottom Photobucket link, you don't need to click the yellow mountain. Plain old paste works just fine.

Copying the bottom link AND clicking the yellow mountain will put IMG tags around the pic
