Adding a photo to a post

How do I attach a photo to a post ?

  • If you want to test posting a photo, the correct place to do that is the "Forum Technical Support" group, the same place that has the sticky with detailed information on photo posting. It can be done even easier than posted above.
  • You can see what a picture post looks like---just click "quote" to see it.

    You 1st need to join Photobucket.com
    Load your pics onto Photobucket
    You need to make sure they're in a 640x480 format.
    When posting a pic on here (and this is just me) you need to click on the
    Reply To Topic spot that's located at the bottom and top of the page on the left hand side.
    Next find the pic in Photobucket you want. Open it up and on the right hand side of the pic will be a box. It will say 'Links to share this photo'.
    Left click in the IMG box. A brief image saying 'copied' will appear then disappear.
    Now go back to the box where you are replying and copy and paste it there.
    I don't use the little image box that's above the reply box. I used to, but this works well for me.

    Keep trying, once you get the hang of it it's pretty simple.


    Many thanks,

    No offense, but I am not good at all this computer jargon

    I'll just forget about adding the picture and live happily ever after.
    If someone asks me a question, and I know the answer I'll gladly be polite and answer them.

    Jack,

    That is how I feel sometimes also. I do like helping others when I have had similar situations happen in my life. We will always learn something new until the end.

    Forum Tech support. Sticky post.

    It sure would be nice if someone here could explain how to do it, unless it is too complicated.
    It is a simple digital phot that I would like to attach to a post
