when you put your curser on the picture you will see 4 links below it.  Copy the ENTIRE link that starts and ends with [IMG}.......stuff......[IMG}

I just save pictures on my computer and post them. That's simple enough for me to do.

I save any picture I want to post in a folder.

When posting, click on "additional options", click on "browse" find the folder and picture you want to post and click on it.

If you have more pictures click on "more attachments" and do the same thing.


This is the only way my computer illiterate a$$ knows how to do it.  ;D

Oh yeah, the picture size has to smaller than 200KB.

Photobucket has changed. It doesn't have the same 4 boxes any more. I've tried all of the choices and no luck. Help!

JB,  I just uploaded photos to Photobucket and put them in a post under "target stencils".   No problem.

Once you have the photos uploaded, just let your mouse hover over one of the pictures.   After a second or two of non-movement, a drop down box will appear with the 4 magic links.   <copy> the "IMG code" and <paste> it to your post.

I know that part Alf. I have a bunch stored in folders. My problem was I forgot how to store new images in my folder. I just remembered. Thanks for your help.

I use Image Shack but that site doesn't always work so well. For some reason I'll post a picture there, then when I copy and paste it to a post I'll get the much dreaded "red X in the box". Then for some reason, the next day, or a few hours later it works fine. It's a "buggy" site.  Bill T.
