Uploading pictures then posting them on threads and member profile pages

[LfcFan]

Here is a walk through for uploading your pictures then posting them on threads and member profile pages (with screenshots).


Uploading your pictures to your album

When you first get on the forum click "User CP" and then click "Pictures & Albums"

Next, click "Add Album" and name it.
Now click your new album and click "Upload Pictures"
Click the "Browse..." button.
Find the picture you want to put in to your album and click "Upload Image". You may need to edit your image in order to upload.

Now click "Save Changes"
Done, you have a picture in your album.


Posting pictures on threads and member profile pages

There a number of ways of doing this but here are two I use.
If you have followed the first part of this thread then go in to your album and click on the picture you want to add to a thread or member profile page.
Below your picture there is a box named "Picture URL" which contains the http address of your picture,right click over the text and select "copy" from the drop down list.


Or instead your can copy the http address of a picture you have seen when browsing the internet.This usually lets u post larger images on a threat or member profile page.
To do this just right click the picture you have seen and select "Properties" from the drop down list.

And just copy the "Address (URL)"


You are now ready to go to the thread or member profile page you wish to post your picture on and click the "Insert Image" button.

This box will then pop up.

Delete the http text in the box. Right click where that text was and select "Paste" from the drop down list.

Now click "OK" and then click "Post Quick Reply" and your done.
The picture you wanted should appear on the forum thread or profile page you desired.

The screen print button on my laptop is function button.To take a screen shot i have to hold down the "Fn" button and press the "prt sc" button. Once ive done that i open the "Microsoft paint" program. Then at the top of the screen click "edit" and select "paste" from the drop down menu. The screen shot i took appears and then its just a case of editing and saving it.

hey i just figured out my new camera and learned that it has an option on it that adusts the size of the pics as u take them . so if u upload any pics from a digital camera check your options on your camera so u dont have to resize them much to upload here.

that was one problem i had that i just recently figured out. hope that helps somebody

Not sure why that happens.Ive seen that on other ppl's posts but not on my own.I think it's just because the web page u are viewing hasnt loaded properly,if the [x] is there then the picture should be,others could b able to see it,try viewing it later.

If you have managed to get some on ....How do you delete them if they are too small or can you move them to somewhere else on the screen? also how do you make them bigger?

[LfcFan]

If pictures are to large or small then you might want to delete them from your post.
At the bottom right of your post it says "edit".
Once you have clicked "edit", the options you get at the bottom right of the box are "save" "go advanced" "delete" "cancel".
You can either click "delete" and remove the whole post or simply delete the text from the box and re-insert a new image.
To increase the size of images you must first start of with a large image,anything in the range of 600 x 600 pixels is a good size to view on the forum.
If you wish to go bigger than that then i suggest uploading your pictures to somewhere like "photobucket" 640 x 480 (large).Then hover your pointer over that image and copy the direct link.This "html" code can now be pasted into the "insert image" box on the forum threads.

This is one of many question i get asked.

"how or can you post pics in emails?"

Wherever you see a picture,right click, select "save image as" from the drop down menu ,rename the image and save in folder where you can find it.
If your using microsoft outlook.
While you writing an email ,select "insert" from the top of the screen,then "picture" from the drop down menu.
Click the "Browse" button from the pop up menu, find the image you have just saved, select it and click "open".
Once you press "ok", the image should appear in the email.
