How to post pictures to the forum - Video

[Ballymoss]

Some people seem to have trouble posting pictures on here so i though i would put a quick video together to show how I do it.

now imbed the video so they dont have to leave the site

[Ballymoss]

I wonder why that didn't work for me??
I pressed all the right buttons to embed it but it wouldn't have it!

Thanks anyway PTS

Hah, just tried it again and it worked this time!!
Fat finger syndrome i guess, lol

How you upload photos off a smart phone ?

[admin]

To post pictures from Facebook:

'right click' the picture on facebook you want to post, select 'view image' from this menu.

Then, get the URL from the address bar, and use this in the URL field when you click the 'image' button in your post editor.

it keeps saying that it's too large. what am I doing wrong? I used to be able to do this... lol

[admin]

I will look into that. you're seeing that error when using the method whown in the video when you go to submit your post or thread?

[Julie]

Yes, it pops up in a little box. It happened like 3 times the morning I posted my thread and I was already leaving later than i wanted to and I tried again just now and got the same error box. (Sorry about that by the way!) I was able to select the "image code" option at photobucket and paste it directly into here and it displayed the image. I was just worried that it was too big and i was going to get in trouble

lol @ get in trouble. You are just too cute.

[Julie]

lol @ get in trouble. You are just too cute.

Thanks, I try... lol well not really I'm just a pretty big dork. It's ok though i have come to terms with it.

[Julie]

Am I allowed to use the image code like that? Or does it do something bad? like take up a lot of space or something.

[admin]

It should be fine, test it out in this thread. You SHOULD be using the 'direct link' option from photobucket though, and pasting that into the box. But if image code works too, then that's fine.

It should also automatically be resized if it is in fact too big.

[Julie]

Here's the tester...



I will keep trying to do it the right way. Let me know if you find out anything.

[admin]

Hey it worked.

Thanks Ballymoss I have never had to upload photos like that on other forums. Now I know!

[vintagegirl]

I have never heard of down loading pics like this either. I just want to use pics from my picture or document folder on my computer. Is that not possible?

i dont have a url because its not off a web site.. correct???
