Can someone tell me how to post a picture here please? Do I have to have a homepage? Thanks.

Re: Posting pictures

Magster65, I hope this helps. I posted this sometime back for someone else. You’ll have to find a web site that can host pictures. www.fishingworks.com is free and easy to use.<br /><br />It’s easy to post a pic. <br /><br />1. Go to fishingworks.com where you have your pictures stored and log on.<br />2. Find the picture you want and click on it so it enlarges.<br />3. Once the picture is up do a right click on it and go down to Properties.<br />4. Click on Properties and a General tab will show up.<br />5. In the middle of that General tab you will see a title that says Address and you will see something like this after it: http://www.fishingworks.com/Users/UserFolders/combee/PhotoImages/Tboat3.jpg <br /><br />6. Highlight this address right click and copy it.<br />7. I usually go to word and paste it so I don’t lose it, but you can go straight to the forum and paste it in a reply post or new post if you like.<br />8. Put a

after the address. Make sure there are no spaces anywhere in the address including the IMG’s! <br />9. If you do it in word first highlight it and copy it and post it on the forum.<br />10. Your final product will look like this!<br /><br />

Re: Posting pictures

If you have the picture in your computer as a file, it's even easier.<br />Look below the box where you type in your comments. There is a button labelled "image". Cick on it, then enter the location of the file in you r computer, such as "C:\My Documents\bigfish.jpg" make sure you put the jpg or gif or bmp on the end. Then post it.

Re: Posting pictures

Sorry coupedeville, I think you'll need it on a server. If you have your computer set up as a FTP site, it would work, but the picture would only be available if the computer is left on.

Re: Posting pictures

No, it works just fine.<br /><br />

<br /><br />I just post it from my local address, D:\Boating\36connie.gif

Find the picture you want and click on it so it enlarges.<br />3. Once the picture is up do a right click on it and go down to Properties.<br />4.

I usually go to word and paste it so I don’t lose it, but you can go straight to the forum and paste it in a reply post or new post if you like.<br />----------------------<br />8. Hit the "IMAGE" button, then paste (Ctrl+v) <br /><br />You'll find the ""IMAGE" button to the right of "Instant Graemlins" You know, this family <br /><br />And yes, Schematic is right about the server.

Re: Posting pictures

Do you see a picture of a Chris Craft Constellation in my above posting? If you do, then I'm correct.

Re: Posting pictures

Re: Posting pictures

Well, that's q-u-e-e-r. I see it in my posting, and I also see it in Bears posting back to me!<br />Somebody else try posting one like I said to. Doesn't matter what it is, I just want to see if it comes out.

Re: Posting pictures

Let me try this again.<br /><br />Now then. If anybody see's a picture, please describe to me what they seeing. Don't send the picture back, just tell me what you see.

Re: Posting pictures

Red X... Pics have to be supported on a web site.. Coupe, I wish your method would work, but that make it too easy...

Re: Posting pictures

Nuts. It would seem to be logical to be able to just paste them in here, like you would for an e-mail. But when has logic influenced too many things?

Well here it is, right from the horse's mouth:<br /> Attaching Files <br /> For security reasons, you may not attach files to any posts. You may cut and paste text into your post, however, or use HTML and/or UBB Code (if enabled) to provide hyperlinks to outside documents. <br />If at first you don't succeed, try reading the instructions!!

Re: Posting pictures

coupedeville,<br />The reason you can see the picture is that this link, file:///D:/Boating/36connie.gif, is pointing through the path in your computer where the picture is.<br />When everyone else opens this post the browser/program (or whatever) do the same but can't find Boating/36connie.gif. in their computers.<br />I can understand that you where sure. Especially if you preveiwed your post before sending it.<br />As I put the same link in my post as a "proof" I forgot that you would be able to see it again. Not much of a joke then I guess. Sorry. "No, it works just fine." was kind of funny at the moment. <br />

Re: Posting pictures

Bloody computers. <br />Anyway, yes you need to save the file to a web page, or site.<br />I set up one on a site called Picturetrail. It's free, believe it or not, and then you just post the address and people can check out the page.<br /><br />Try it. http://www.picturetrail.com/coupedeville

Re: Posting pictures

Well that didn't work the way I thought it would. <br />Ah, screw it. I've spent too much time on this anyway. I'm outta here.
