can't post saved pics, help?

[ryan hickey]

i sure thought i was doing it right, after i click upload it says the file is to big by 34.8 kb, which is the actual size of the pic. any suggestions? is something wrong here (at thesite) or is this user error (i suspect the latter :rolleyes: )

[quackrstackr]

It's probably the site.

I don't think anyone has been able to attach images of any size for a while now.

Upload them to photobucket.com and link them that way.

If you have a picture in a file on your PC you can upload it to -

http://www.photobucket.com

Just click on the above photobucket URL and when it opens you will have to register.

Once you have registered you can upload pictures there and store them..

To post them here :

1) Highlight the IMG (address) which is the bottom category of the picture by left mouse clicking and dragging you cursor over the IMG/address. The IMG/address will look like –

[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v474/Woowoo1/MarksIllinoisdeer2004.jpg[*/img]

NOTE: The asterisk * was put in the IMG/address so that it would not show a picture, but just an address...

2) After you highlight it, leave your cursor on the URL/address and right mouse click.

3) A menu will drop down. Select and left mouse click on COPY from the menu

The picture is now ready to be posted on the website you want it to be on..

4) Select the thread you want to post to and hit reply.

5) When you get the reply screen right mouse click.

6) A menu will drop down.

7) Select and left mouse click on PASTE. The IMG/address of the photo is now pasted into the reply area.

8 ) Hit Submit Reply

..and that should do it.

Most Bulletin Board operates the same way for posting pictures.

Use that little button at the top of your reply box that looks like a mountain and dump that address in there and it will show up right in your post....;)

If you copy and paste the url at the bottom of the picture it will post the picture. I think what you did was copy the top URL and what we got was the address...

Here is the picture..

I highlighted the img address but copy wasn't one of the options that it gave me to go to I tried it several times it never did say copy???

[quackrstackr]

Click the righthand button on your mouse after you highlite, it should give you the option to copy in a popup.

That or you can always copy using the keys Ctrl+C after you highlite and paste with Ctrl+V.

[naturalelite]

I tried the right mouse button will try ctl+c doing it now so will see if it works thanks

[quackrstackr]

Where are you trying to copy and paste from?

Works for me every time in photobucket, I just checked.

[naturalelite]

not working for me on photobucket?The first time I did it I saw copy but I was on the tag line not the img line you think that might have messed it up?

[quackrstackr]

shouldn't have.


you may have to log out of photobucket and then log back in.. for that matter, you may need to reboot your computer.

when they get confused they tend to be a little screwy until you do that.
