I put a post not long ago, and the photo I wanted to include with
did not show. How do we do that ?
Thanks

If you mean like a screenshot (or any other image), you can upload it at ImageShack (http://www.imageshack.us/index.php) then copy and paste the line with url

Yes the images have to be hosted elsewhere, then the image can be placed in your post using the insert image button in the reply window. You will need the url link to the image when inserting it here!

Shouldn't this post be a sticky? I just learned all I needed to know to make my first pics posts today from this thread.:go:

Thanks a million...:hello:

Sticky ? why not :scratch:
Dobber? your choice :wink:

but thegrindere
why don't you use the thumbnail code from imageshack?
they offer a thumbnail code for forums
just copy/paste the code to have this

@ LadyH = I frequent a number of forums and have been told to keep them 800x600 or smaller in size for the slower PCs. Mine are 750x600. Personally, I don't like the pop ups you get when clicking on a image link. Am I doing wrong?:nono:

@ Dobber = Thanks. I think more will post if it's easier to find.:biggrin:

wrong? you can't do wrong when there is no rule :biggrin:

the germans like thumpnails most
so it's an unwritten rule out there

you can do as you want to
it was just a question

the only thing i don't like are screenshots that are bigger than my screen can show :beek: :nono:
