Posting Photos

How do I do it?

[ggdad1951]

depends if you are trying to post thumbnails or full photos.

 

if you are doing full photos from a service like photobucket:

go to photobucket and get the link to directly share the photo (gear looking icon) copy the link

on here see the little box on the second row  ^ about straight up next to the "<>"?  click that and paste in the link

done

Posting photos from your computer....

 

• Create a folder for photos to post

• Copy photos to that file

• Open the photos and resize them with the Paint program

• use the "Resize / Skew" button

• It will say "Horizontal 100" "Vertical 100"

• Change both values to 50

• Hit save

• This will reduce the size of the photo for posting on the forum

• you can reduce less or more by choosing another percentage other than 50.....I find 50 is a good choice 

• Post these images using the "more reply options"

• You get 3MB to a single post

• click "choose files"

• A window pops up....find your internet photos file and click on the photo you want  

• As you post images, it subtracts the amount of MB's you have used for that post 

• Say you want to post 5 images to that post...as you load them, you may see the MB get down to , say 500KB.....the last photo is 900KB...it will say the that file is to big

• The photo isn't to big....you just ran out of MB for that post...just do another post to get that last image.
