Here are the guidelines for posting images:
1) NO HOTLINKING - this means, do not post an image inline that is from another site, free image hosting provider or otherwise. as we have all seen in the past at other fora, over time these images on remote servers can get moved or deleted and then we are left with threads with nice red 'X' marks where images used to be. unacceptable.
2) ATTACH ALL IMAGES - there is a neat feature when you are posting in a tab below the text box in which you are typing called "Upload attachment". use this.
3) See steps 1-2

2it's super easy if you're using MS Windows:
here's how:
here's how:
- Click the "Upload attachment" tab below the message box
- For "Filename", click "Browse"
- In the "File Upload" box that pops up, in the box that reads "Filename", paste the full URL of the image (i.e., http :// www .someremoteserver .com/someimage.jpg)
- Click "Open"
- Add comments if you wish - not necessary
- Click "Add the file"
- If you would like the image/attachment to be displayed within your post rather than at the bottom of your post, click "Place inline"

5How can we post an image in our Signatures? I tried to use the img from my desktop, and failed, and, of course it wouldn't load from Photobucket.

8Just call me "The TERRIBLE Techie"! So terrible that I resisted getting a mobile phone until last year, and didn't get a smart phone, and do nothing else but receive calls and texts and send them. So terrible I didn't get a personal computer until 2003, and still don't use I-Cloud, or any cloud. So terrible, that I replaced my own photo with a Canadian flag because I'm too clueless to know where to find and how to use a file-shrinking programme. So terrible, that I'm still a hand-drawing, 2D animator instead of a 3D computer animator.So terrible that I still use a record-playing turntable and cassette deck, and use no electric dishwasher, and I don't know how to use an i-Pad or i-Pod (or their non-Mac equivalents). And I make my own spaghetti sauce.CaptSMRT wrote:RobK sets them up...and knocks them down.
Re: Images in posts, BNF and YOU
9I let my grandkids figure out the computer stuff. They seem to have learned how to use an I-pad since about age 3-but they are not here so I hope I can figure out how to add a picture or 2 also like you successfully did as I give the site a try

21I guess we've been bad bad boys. IMG is not longer available. Sucks.

22post images all you want. just attach them. for the "why", see the first post in this thread.
Re: Images in posts, BNF and YOU
23I wasn't doing it in my FTP thread because I thought that you couldn't put the photo/gif in a specific location in the post. Then when I noticed that you had asked yet again, I played around with it and what da ya know, you can do just that very thing. It's amazing what you can do when you just slow down and look at everything carefully.T.C. wrote:post images all you want. just attach them. for the "why", see the first post in this thread.
