How to get pics to post?

Post by Velokid1 » Tue Oct 10, 2006 1:45 pm

Alrighty, I give. How do you do it on these boards?

On other boards I can go to Properties and Copy the URL address for an image, then paste that URL into the body of a post with the image tags around it, like this:

But here that doesn't work.

Help?

the [albumimg]xxxxx[/albumimg] code is only if it is stored on this site. It puts out a thumbnail which you then click on to get the full size pic.

[albumimg]96[/albumimg]

If it's stored on an external server then you use the IMG code.

Dammit...now you gotta tell me how you did it. Over on that other site, if you click on the pic twice then copy the url you can use the full size pics...doesn't seem to work that way here unless I'm (probably) doing something wrong. BTW Ryan I got your pm a while back on the other site about that F/I problem I was having with that '79. No I haven't fixed it yet, it isn't my Bus and the guy who owns it isn't all that motivated right now to get it goin, so I'll just let it sit until he decides he wants to get rid of it and then scoop it up for myself. =D>

1. I use image shack, some use photo bucket to load photos
2. I was wondering if you got that engine running properly
3. This forum is awesome- I need to get some cards made up for the people who ask about my bus. :king: then they can see this place for themselves.
