    Including pictures in post

    I'm trying to include a couple of pictures in a post and can't figure out how to do it. I don't want to post to the gallery, at least not yet, just include the pictures in a general post.

    Thanks,
    Rod

    Rod,

    What you need to do is get an account at an image hosting site.

    A number of us use Photobucket ( www.photobucket.com )

    Setting up an account is free.

    Once you have one you can upload your photo to their site.

    They take your image file and resize it / compress it for use on online forums and email.

    Once uploaded you move your cursor over the photo and a little box pops up with several image code options depending on what you what to do with it.

    The last image code is the one that if you cut and past it onto your post will show your picture.

    Hope this was of help.

    Cheers

    Jamie

    Once you have your photobucket account and have followed the instructions for uploading your photos you need to paste in the IMG code that can be found at the bottom of your image here is a graphic showing the code you need:
