Just trying to post pics to the forum...please excuse my experimenting.









Rob... I moved your picture to my desk top but its tiny

Rob, edit your post and take out one of the "http://" There are 2 in there. Then save it and we'll see if the pic shows up.

Thanks Carol, I caught that on the second try but it didn't seem to work either. I did go back and edit the first post, but still no luck. It's the first time that I"ve posted to the forum so it's just a learning curve...at least I hope it is!

daggonit....that wasn't it either.

do this:

[ i m g ] URL [ / i m g ]

But take all the spaces out.

[rob_vic]

i give up.

[rob_vic]

hmmmm, thanks, that [i m g] (without spaces) was already there but it still didn't work.

[rob_vic]

and I even reviewed your definitive guide to posting pics. I'll figure it out sooner or later. Thanks for all your help! Rob

Seemed to work when I changed it... go back up to your post #5 and edit your post... you'll see how it's formatted.

Sectshun8, is this what the link is supposed to look like?

[sectshun8]

I looked at your post and yes it IS supposed to look like that, but the URL was invalid, so nothing came up. I even tried to view it outside in another window and it came up invalid.

When using Picasa, make sure to youse the URL it gives to share the photo, otherwise the link will ONLY work for you and no one else.

best way for me to post pics is to save the pic on my desktop,then when you make a post scroll just below where you type and youll see a "button" that says "manage attachments" click that and just double click on the name of the pic you want to post then i think you have to hit up load or somthing like that. i think jpegs can not be any wider/taller than 800x800 I usually size mine to 600.
