Smile Photo posting

Hi Adrian

I am by far from the best computer whizz ( I blame old age ) but here's how it all works for me.

Take my pictures using my digital camera & transfer them to my PC

Once the pictures are on your PC you then need to find an online image hosting sevrice such as photobucket ( Free ) .... Plenty of free ones out there to choose from.

Once you have decided on your choice of photo host, you will need to upload your photos to your photo host from your PC

I use Photobucket cos like me, it is simple

My photobucket upload also automaticly resizes my image to a suitable size for forum inclusion ( I guess they all do !!?? )

Once you have your photos stored on your host, hover the cursor over the picture that you wish to post on the forum.
You will notice a drop down list of web linky addresses.
Click on the IMG code ( Bottom on the list in Photobucket ) It will save a copy on you clipboard .... You may have to right click & choose copy in other photo hosting sites .

Tis the address that starts with [IMG] and ends with [IMG]

Finaly, on the forum post that you are typing, hit the enter key a couple of times ( This will sepperate the image from the text )
Right click on the mouse & choose paste, this will enter the address code that you saved from Photobucket.

If all is well, when you preview your post, the picture should be there in all its glory

Here is a sample photo that I included using the method described above.

I am sure there are many different ways of posting photos but that's how it all works for me & just about as much as my pea brain can handle !!

Hope it is of some help.
