Is there anyway to put pictures in a post,, not just a link?

 

Thanks,

Nick

This forum is different then most, they use "sort of" an HTML code to post photos... I'll see if I can post the code and for it to show up, I'll have to break the code for it to be seen with a * (so before trying remove the "*" from the code)

The code is... <*img src="yourlinkgoeshere"*> (again remove the * from the code and close the space that removing it made.

So, the photo code would look like this below (again with out the "*") for the photo under it.

<*img src="http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a235/FHF2Omen/stuff/msghopper.jpg"*>




I hope my grasshopper image didn't spook ya 52 Another hobby of mine, taking photos of gritters on my farm.

Oh, make sure "Disable HTML in this post?" is NOT checked in your profile settings or when you make your post in the option section below the posting window.

Make sure you photos are located on a Photo Server.  Some place where they are available 24x7

Photobucket, Picasa, Flicker, Imageshack are examples of photo servers.

Once the photos are resident on the server, click on the get links and select the direct link.

It will look something like this  http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p259/Painted-Horse/2013/IMG_0772.jpg

Copy that link to your clipboard. and return to the Horsetrailerworld forum window. I usually have two or more windows open and tab between them.

In the Forum window ( I am assuming you have either started a new post or are replying to a post.

Type what ever you want to type and when you get to the place you want to insert a photo, click on the little icon that looks like a Photo frame with a mountain in it.

An Insert Image Dialog box will open, Where the highlighted http:// appears you want to place you mouse cursor and either right click and select PASTE or press the CTL V buttons.  It will paste your link into the box and you can select OK.  the photo will appear.
