How do I post pictures?
There are two ways to add photos.
Method 1 - Linking by URL (link an existing photo that is hosted/resides elsewhere on the web).
Method 2 - Insert a photo using the attachment features of this site.
Method 1
If you roll the cursor over the "Img" button just above where you type the message body it shows how the coding should look.
You can get the Image tags by just clicking the "Img" button and it will make a front and back tag for you. You just need to insert the URL. You can get the URL by right clicking your photo and then left clicking "properties" then copy and pasting the location.
Sometimes there will be two locations listed. Make sure you grab the correct one or it won't work. You want to copy the "image properties" not "link properties" or "miscellaneous properties". Previewing is a good idea.
If you find you are having problems check for spaces between the coding. Spaces are probably the most common and easily missed mistake. If that doesn't work make sure you have the correct properties URL.
Method 2
With this method you will be hosting the photo and linking it from an attachment on your post. You are allowed to attach up to three photos per post. The picture(s) you would like to attach needs to be 256 KB or smaller. It may also need to be in JPEG or jpg format.
From the "Post Reply" screen scroll down to the section labeled "Upload attachment". In the "Filename" line there is a tab marked "Browse". Click this.
Find the file you would like to attach then click on it and then click open or double click on it to automatically open it.
There is a "File comment" box of you would like to add a comment to it. Right of the comment box is the "Add the File" tab. Click it to attach the file into your post.
There is an "Attachments:" bar just below the text box. Click on the "Place Inline" tab to put the attachment into your post. If there is more than one attachment you will need to pick each file as you would like to attach it.
Previewing is a good idea since you cannot fix the post once you submit it.
