I am getting frustrated with not figuring out how to post photos
Posted by castelnuovo on Saturday, November 1, 2008 7:58 PM

How in the world do you do it?

I followed instructions from some posts and tried photobucket or tynipicks. I can upload the picture but when I write down the adress in brackets like this [...]  (Mozilla is not allowing me to copy and paste to this forum??) all I get is a small blank square with a little piece broken of, something like that.

If I just write the link then, after "copy and paste" it in the adress bar, the computer just says "can't find the page"!!

What is going on? There must be a way. Can anybody help.

Thanks

Softrun,

you DON'T write the address in brackets...instead you use an image tag that looks like this:
[img] and [/ img]

so, type [img]www.yourpicaddresshere[/ img] without a space in the tag with the slash.

give it a shot here, so that if it works, great!  If it doesn't, I can look at the html code of your post and tell you where you went wrong.  Good luck!  HTH!

Cheers,
Alex

I feel your pain. That's why I built this tutorial on posting pics:

Ohhh......I'm gonna put two and two together and assume this is why you have yet to post pics of your dio in the armor section.
