Posting pictures How-To

[riverbee]

sc,
for photobucket, may work for others as well, if you don't want folks in your albums, this is what you do, copy the IMG code and paste it in the body of your post like this:

Code: [Select]

[URL=http://s1056.photobucket.com/user/riverbee1/media/Gold%20Hive%20Tool/152-E_hive_tool_zpscb7febea.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1056.photobucket.com/albums/t373/riverbee1/Gold%20Hive%20Tool/152-E_hive_tool_zpscb7febea.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
then get rid of all the parameters in front of [I MG] and behind [I MG]  so that it looks like this:

Code: [Select]

[IMG]http://i1056.photobucket.com/albums/t373/riverbee1/Gold%20Hive%20Tool/152-E_hive_tool_zpscb7febea.jpg[/IMG]

then you will have your photobucket pic with no access to other albums:

if anyone sees this when they click on a photo uploaded through post image, ignore it, scroll down to see the image.  you do not need an account:

and ignore these two as well from post image, just scroll past these messages:

Post Image funtion keeps telling me that my file size is to large for upload.  This happens even when I select avatar size.  I thought there was two options for attachments.  But I only now see the Image Post option.

The one above the posting window is the one to use. I just posted this one from there using 640X 480. It says for message boards.

jason, you will get this notice if the file size of your photo is too large to upload/convert to a different size you choose for post image. sometimes post image can't handle a file size and the conversion.

i have received this message from time to time using photos taken with digital cameras, sometimes the color or whatever of the original has too many pixels for post image to handle and convert to the size you choose, (no matter what size you choose) so you need to reduce the size before uploading when you get that message.  i reduce the size of any photo i get the same message with using a photo program on my pc and then upload to the forum. 

once you reduce the size on your pc, you should be able to upload through post image.......
these are our choices:



sometimes i choose 'do not resize my image' but for the most part i use as iddee stated for 'message boards' this is a great size.

hope this makes sense? and helps!

None of the photos I take with a digital camera will upload because of the size.  I have to open the photo with MS Paint and resize the picture.  I just resize it to 50%, rename the photo and save it with the new name (so I don't lose the full value picture), and then it will upload without a problem.

as long as I do a random grab and don't choose my image it will load?  Nope not even then

[riverbee]

sorry wm for the delay in my reply to you post........depending on what size your digital camera is set at to take pix.......or the colors, the pixels, yes we sometimes have to resize the pic to upload to post image.........if you experience any problem, or just want some extra help, please send me a pm.  i will help you get your photos uploaded.............this goes for anyone experiencing an issue.  don't get frustrated, just send me a pm, and i will help you out or upload them for you! 

gypsi..........
i am not sure what you mean by a 'random grab'? and not choosing an image?........please explain? or send me a pm and i will help you with uploading your pix!

[Gypsi]

the browse window wasn't letting me select an image, it just grabbed the first one in my rather massive file folder, but then it failed to upload anyway.  That was random grab.  I have bigger problems today, sometime I will send you a pm and upload a pic.
