Posting pictures on this forum??
« on: December 16, 2011, 03:39:45 PM »
Hi,

To post pictures on this forum, do you need to copy them from an external server (like photobucket) or can you copy them from your hard drive?

Thanks,
Gary

I believe you have to use an external server as you mentioned. I posted few pictures yesterday and that was the only way I could figure it out.

Uh.... help.  I went to photobucket and for some reason the image did not show when I went to preview my post.  Would someone be so kind to give some insight to a poor old man here  :-[  You know, thirty steps to posting a picture.  Sorry I have not read the details in doing so.  Thanks everyone for understanding.

Did you copy the image code below your picture from PB?

Not from below, but the actual http code in the browser bar.  This was the way I had done it over at the AGF.  Thanks....

if you're using a PC, right click on the pic & a window should pop up -
click on 'Properties' at the bottom & then highlite the address URL & copy it

once back to your post, click on the 'insert image' button, on the left above the smiley
then paste the URL that you previously copied - it should work if i did it correctly

let's see ...

if that still doesn't work, if you can post links of the pics,
the address can be copied from the browser bar at the top,
we can try & help with the direct link-up so they'll appear
it's not about what you play,
it's all about why you play ...

When using photobucket you can easily copy and paste the [img] code into your message.

I guess I should thank you guys, Michaelw and Chad *  Thanks for the help.  I forgot to do so when posting the photo above.

Thanks Chad and Cindy for the compliments on the guitar.  And Cindy, it took a couple of years of me letting the deck age, but I like the rustic look.  A side note... My wife bought me a pressure washer about 3 years ago and I think she'd like for me to use it on the deck.

i'm sure that Chad's way is a lot easier, as you don't have to click on the 'insert image' link -
i don't have a photobucket account (mine on webshots) & there's a 'post to forum' codeline
to post pics that i'll be using from now on because it is much faster & easier ... thanks Chad

nice 814ce, especially love the tobaccoburst finish :)

if you decide to pressure wash the deck, it would be recommended to remove
any guitars in the vicinity to prevent any unintended 'overhumdification issues' ;)
