Posting Pictures in the Main Forum (in any topic)

Hi,

Here some instructions of how to post pictures in the Main Forum section.  It doesn't matter which "Topic" you are in.  Hope this helps.

Hi,

Here is how I post pics in this area:

1) Hit Reply or Start Topic, whichever you are doing.

2) At the top of the reply menu there are many buttons that allow you to do things, i.e. , B (for bold) I (for italics) U (for underline) etc. On the top row and 3rd from the end is the "Host an Image" icon. Just place your cursor over it and the name of the icon will appear.

3) When you hit the "Host an Image" icon you will see another menu come up. It will say "Upload your Image.

4) You will then need to click the "Browse" button.

5) This is where you need to find your picture on your computer. When you find it you will double click on the picture and then the link will appear in 3 different locations when the next screen pops up.

6) You will also need to hit the drop down menu for the "Resize Image". If you use the 320 px (for blogs) the picture won't appear so large that we will need to scroll left to right after you post it.

7) Once you hit the "Host It" icon, wait for a few seconds, and then you will see 3 different links for posting pictures. "Thumbnail" , "Image", and "Image url" .

You will want to hit "Image". This will then highlight and then what I do is "right click" and then select "Copy".

9) You can then right click on your reply page, after you type in your message on your post, and then select the "Paste" option.
10) When you do this your picture will appear when your reply registers with the site. It only takes about 10 seconds. Please don't place a large picture here because then we will all have to scroll over a lot since the picture will be so large.

If you still can't post your pic after following the above instructions then send your pic to me and I will post it for you . Just give your "nick" so we all know whose picture it is. It really is simple once you do it so try to follow the instructions and it should work.

Ah ha, it worked, for me. That's me on my little Cupcake, the first day I picked her up, about 150kilometres from my home. I removed the top box to ride her home.

Hi,

I just made this short "Pictorial" on Hosting an Image.  This system uses the word Host instead of Post.  Hope it helps.
