So, About the Idiot's Guide to Posting Pictures?

Post by Bigslug »

On my last two forums I had the menu option of pulling photos from "my computer", which would allow me to go into File Explore and pull the photos from wherever I had them saved. Hoping we can get something equally straightforward here, but in the meantime. . .

How does this current system work? In small words please, for us 19th Century time travellers. :oops:

Writing up a tutorial on pics is on my list of things to do today.

First step- click the button for "Full Editor & Preview" below the quick reply box. That will bring up all the smilies, icons, etc...

There is a tab below for "Attachments" . Upload your photo, then click insert inline.

With all the pics going up, do we even need a tutorial?

So do we need a hosting site to attach a code to post pics? I tried that and it did not work any more than trying to post from my computer.

If you are copying a link, you can use old school UBB code and just type [ img] insert link [ /img] without the spaces.
For the phone users, you can resize your pic with the editor on the phone to something reasonable. Takes about 2 seconds with a Samsung Galaxy YMMV

Or, not resize because this isn’t dial up. 😘
