O.K. I need to get some pics on the fourm and have no idea how to do it. What is photo bucket? WHERE DO I START?

Photobucket is an Image server. Basically it is a place on the internet to store pictures.

 

This is photobucket:

Photobucket

 

I use imageshack, so I'll describe it:

Imageshack

 

Get yourself an account. Once you have an account, click on Upload Image in Imageshack. A dialog box will come up. Click on browse and find where the picture is on your computer and select it. Once you do that, select resize image (you don't need, or actually want to upload the whole image. The full resolution of a digital camera is way more than a computer screen can use). I resize for a 17" monitor. Then click upload.

 

Once uploaded, another dialog box will pop up, with a bunch of different links to your image. I use the one called Short Link, or direct. Highlight the text in whichever box, right mouse click, and select copy (or CNTRL C, the shortcut for copy). Now go to your post and click the little icon called "Insert Image" (just to the left of the smiley face). Another dialog box comes up. Now click on the text window, right mouse click, and Paste (or CNTRL V, the shortcut for Paste). Hit OK and that is it.

 

Sounds complicated, but it's pretty simple once you do it a couple of times. Took bobloblaw and tungsten about 2 months each, but they are not very smart.

Yeah, we can't all be rocket surgeons like Rick...

 

 

See, even "not very smart" BobLoblaw can upload pics!

After you upload to photobucket your photo will have four links attached to it. Cut and paste the IMG Code and you should be good to go. Just remember to preview your post first.

 

 

[EdB]

this is what comes up.........You have entered a link to a website that the administrator does not allow links to

[admin]

Just use the IMG Code on Photobucket and you'll be good. Nothing has changed on FCC.
