Up Loading images

Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone who has supported my efforts at useing this site and uploading items. :clap: Now I have got an avatar and siganture I need to add images to my signature. If I have read correctly I can only do this if I add images to another website is that correct? :think: The website has to be available to view by anyone not a secure site like face book? :think: I need to open an account on flicker, you tube or the like? :think: Hope you Omleters can help? :?

You are right in thinking that you need to put it on another site first. I don't think facebook will work, but Photobucket and Flickr both do.

 

If you have a Yahoo! email account then setting up a Flickr account is really easy, you just have to chose a user name and that's it. :D

OK I now have a flickr account and have up loaded my images to this whats next? :think:

Now go the picture you want to upload, go to 'Share this' > 'Grab the HTML code' and make sure that the HTML box is clicked. Resize it there if you want, anything that is less than 640 pixels in width should be small enough.

 

Copy and paste the code here and I'll show you how to finish up. :D

 

I'm assuming that this is you. :D Had a look at a few of your pics. They were fabby :D

No sorry :oops::lol: . I am terrible at explaining aren't I ?!

 

What you are copy and pasting is the URL. We need the HTML code.

 

1. Go to the page of the picture you'd like to upload.

2. Near the top of the page there is a little grey box that says 'Share This' . Click on it, and a drop down menu will appear.

3. Click on 'Grab the HTML/BBCode' I think this is where you're going wrong.

4. Make sure that the circle next to 'HTML' has a mini blue circle in it, and the one that says 'BBCode' DOESN'T. This should be like this by default.

5. If you want to resize the image, click the arrow next to the thing that says 'Medium 500 (500 x 365). Select the size you would like. The lower down on the list they are, the bigger they are. Anything up to and including the second Medium ( 640 x 480 ) will be acceptable on the forum.

6. Now copy and paste the code above.
