posting pictures from Photobucket

[Joe Flanagan]

Can anyone give me a quick rundown on how this is done?

[Plymouthy Adams]

open your photobucket account in another window.. get the direct link code and copy and paste in the pop up window when you click on the insert image button..(yellow mountain)

Or you can click and copy the IMG link and paste it direct to this page.

IMG]http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p85/Dennis_MN/Truck%20Shows/DSCN6873.jpg[/img]

This shows the img code line which I cut (control C) and then pasted

(control V) here. It is missing the leading "[" which I left off to show the code instead of a big Dodge truck......

You can practice by taking this img code and adding the leading [ on the next post.

I'm just testing this - I can't seem to get the hang of the picture thing.

test:

http://s49.photobucket.com/albums/f281/2375830/

will that let you see my pictures?

Now the question - how do you make them appear on the post as either a thumbnail or a full picture like I see everyone else do.

It's not easy being a computer illiterate.

Underneath your pic you'll see a selection of links. Left click on the IMG code and a little box should say copied. Then in your post just right click and select paste. Voila! If you want thumbnails, you can Google thumbnails and there's a free site which will convert your pics to t/n's. BTW: your link worked.

When you make a post, just scroll down to a section called additional options

if you click on the button "manage attachments" it will bring up a screen that has a button for "browse" which lets you find a file in your hard drive where you have your pictures stored.

Once you select one, then click upload.

you can then select additional images using "browse" and "upload" for each one. When you are finished with attachments, go back up and select

"submit reply"

Joe, it works...I still can't get over the amount of work you have into those floors, and a quality job that will last longer than the original, too. Keep us up to date on your progress, we really are interested, Joe.
