Title: How to add photos to converstaions?
Post by: lilacwoman on December 25, 2013, 09:20:33 AM
How does the insert images work?
I took pix of my selection of dilators but when I click the Insert icon and get the [img][img] but how can I select one of the pix of my comp and actually upload it?
with normal emails of course I just click Browse then click on the photo file and then click Ok and a pix is added t an email so how does this forum image work?

Your picture has to already be on the internet somewhere.  There are free places to host your pictures: photobucket, Flickr, etc.

Once they are on the internet, they will have their own specific web address, you copy that and put it in between the IMG tags.

Ah thanks, not sure Flickr would be best place for them so I'll think of another way.

I use photobucket because it's free and fairly simple.  Using that website just upload a photo, then click on it to expand it to full size.  On the right side is a box that says LINKS TO SHARE THIS PHOTO, and at the bottom of that click on the box next to the notation IMG.  It should briefly turn yellow, and say COPIED. 

Then just past the picture into your post.

Also, flickr isn't public unless you want it to be.  It is a little trickier to get the photo URL though, so yeah, I guess give photobucket a try.
