How to post pictures

[raider34]

The maximum file limit for this forum is 800x800 pixels, so for your pictures to upload properly make sure they are within the limits.

There are two options when uploading pics, you can either upload the pics from your computer, or upload your pics from a URL (Another site, like photobucket).

The first step is the same for either option. Above the text box on the reply page, click on the insert image link (See pic #1)
.


Once you have clicked on the link, a box will pop up. You can either choose to upload your pics by clicking on the "From Computer" or "From URL".


For uploads from your computer, simply click select files, a new window will pop up, locate the image you want to upload from your computer. Once you have clicked on the image it will show up in the "Add Image" box, and click Upload file(s). The image will then show up in the txt box and you can submit and your done.

For uploads from URL, click the upload from URL (Circled in blue in pic #2). Then simply enter the URL (direct link) into the box and click insert image. The image will then show up in the reply box, click reply and your done.

*Just as a side note, the image will be shrunk when posted on the forum, but if you click on the image it will return to it's regular size.

I have tried this and I do not get the choice of "from computer". I just get the URL response. I am using a Mac and I have my photo on I photo on the computer. I have tried drag and drop but it doesn't work. When I click the attach photo box it always wants the URL. When I put that in the message it still just shows the URL not the photo from the URL. What the heck am I doing wrong? Or is the above guidance outdated since the "from computer" option does not appear. Help. I have no problem attaching a photo to an e-mail but this method here has me frustrated.

Ocho, see that paper clip thingy up on the toolbar? That's what you want to hit. Up comes "file upload manager". You're going to click "add files" (upper right, green + sign). Next hit "select files" and determine which file(s) you want to upload from your computer. Hope this helps. More troubles? PM me or post again here....
