The easiest way to post a pic in the forum is to copy the link to the image, hit the 'Insert Image' button you see in the message toolbox, and paste the link in the box that opens up. Looks like you hit the button twice or something.

 

BTW, candlesbytammy1, your puppy is half naked! :shock:

The IMG code shows up twice because photobucket has the img tag option. If you copy from that option with the img tag then you can just paste directly into the post.

If you are using a link without the img codes that just start with http:// it's much easier to click on the little mountain pic and paste the link in there. It adds tags for you, hence the double img tags in your post.

 

I hope that made a little bit of sense.

It worked! I'm working from Picasa web albums, and I think they're all different.

 

I just right clicked on the pic, went down to Properties, copied the location (http:...) and pasted it into the box that comes up here when you click the mountain (insert picture) icon.

 

Whew. Good luck.

You can make this pic large but not here. You would have to resize it with software and repost it. This is a small pic and that is why it is small.

The address you are trying to post isn't the address to an actual picture - it's just a web site. You need to get the URL web address of the actual picture file (which will usually end in .jpg or .gif) for it to show up.

Thanks... How do I figure out the URL web address of the actual picture.
