Thumbs up How to put pics in your posts

Here you go all you folks that were asking - here's how you do it...

Go to a photo uploading site like

https://ctrlq.org/images/
(straight uploading no resizing)

or

http://www.postimages.org/
resizing available.

STEP 1

Browse to where the file is on your computer

STEP 2

Hit upload and wait a for a while whilst the pic gets uploaded

STEP 3

Highlight the embed code generated e.g
PHP Code:
https://i.imgur.com/0tbQ1ta.jpg 
by clicking it and copy it (right click, select Copy)


STEP 4
use the image button & paste code

should find it in your post like

PHP Code:
[img]https://ctrlq.org/images/[/img] 
hey presto, you're done!!!

Post.

There are other image hosts you can use as well, I just use that one the most...

Good luck and have fun...

I'm such a technodummy I have to be told (better yet, shown) EVERY tiny detail or I can't do it. Dumb as I am, I still can't understand what to do, not even with your directions. If you were standing next to me and telling me what to do exactly, I might be able to do it, but even with your instructions I still don't get it...:sorry

I just went to TinyPic and tried it but couldn't "open" the place on my computer where my pix are. I give up. I still don't understand your instructions...

Least, what folder are your pics in? You know where about on your computer you keep them, like a pictures folder or something?

If you can tell us where they are, you can get past the 'browse' bit that you're stuck at. PM me if you want.

Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket

works good too because you can save them in there and use them again-

I did catch on, finally, and now it's easy to upload a pic from my computer to post. Just be sure in step 2 to resize your image to "forums, message board" size. That will look just right.

Hey Least...I would have done their nails for free...I just did this sweet little girl today.

It was a beautiful day to get everyone out in the fresh air. Think we all have cabin fever.
