    How in God's name do you put pictures in threads? I've been trying for the past two hours to figure out the url to put in to make the computer direct itself to my two pics.:rant2:
    And I took several classes a year ago that taught me how to build web sites from scratch, but now I can't even figure out how to post pictures.



    Wow, I feel like an idiot.

    I am going to space everything out, that way it might be visible in my post. If I put it all together, without spaces, it would think I am trying to put a pic...
    Example to post a pic from a web address:
    Highlight and right click the web address to the pic you want to post.
    So you can 'copy' then 'paste'.
    Type this in your thread:
    [ i m g ] (paste pic addy here) [ / i m g ]

    You can link to just about anything.
    If you need the pic's addy, just right click the pic while at full size, click properties, then it will show the addy. Now highlight and 'copy'.

    If you are wanting to upload pics from your PC, there is a button in the 'advanced' post screen to 'manage attachments'.
    Once it is attached to that thread, you can go back in the future and link to it for other threads. Just use the attachment addy in your 'img' tags.
