Mrs Frugal Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 i was told you have to join flickr or photobucket but i am not sure weather i want more progs on my laptop, someone will be along soon who can advise you soon im sure You don't need to add programs to your computer to use Flickr and Photobucket. You just need to register with them to use them. www.photobucket.com - there should be instructions on how to register then you simply copy links to photos you've uploaded to your Photobucket account and paste them when you want to use them on the forum .

Mrs Frugal Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 If you have any problems, PM me as I'm usually able to help out with resizing/uploading etc if you get stuck . Photobucket is really easy to use and free! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tidygirlsuk Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 I found photo bucket great for adding pics to forum messages but i couldn't use it for my avatar pic because i couldn't get the picture small enough for it. Maybe i'm just stupid ! I've done it now using a link i found on omlet wiki- http://www.bigwebpages.com/big/resize.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Frugal Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Sophie, if you would like me to upload a picture for you, send me a PM and I'll let you have my email address so that you can send me a picture to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cluckbok Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Ooh I wouldn't give anyone your password, even though we are a friendly lot on here you don't want no one messing with your account. PM stands for Private Message, a bit like e-mail on here. I not sure how to do it but it's done through the settings section. Someone techy will be a long in a mo I'm sure. Don't worry you'll get it sorted soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckbok Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Kate or Christian can do it for you no probs they are the mods on here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Sophie, I'm going to send you a PM (private message) to give you my email address so that you can send me a picture to upload for you. A private message is just like an email which only you can see and if you reply, only I can see the message. You don't have to give any passwords etc to me because I can upload an avatar for you using the admin panel as Omlet have given me admin access. Look out for my message arriving. You should see that it says "You have 1 new message" at the top of the page. When you see that, click it and you'll see a message entitled "Picture" in your inbox. Click it to open it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
