<p>[quote user="CP guy in TX"]</p> <p><a href="http://s1189.photobucket.com/albums/z438/CPguyinTX/?action=view¤t=2816B.jpg">?action=view¤t=2816B.jpg</a></p> <p>I'm trying to figure out how to post pictures here, and I hope this works.. An I phone picture isn't great, but I'm just experimenting..</p> <p>Here goes nothing...</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>Not sure if you have it figured out, but in case not, maybe you need a tip: Excuse me if I write the obvious and your know this already:</p> <p>1. Join an online photo server like Photobucket...or Flikr.......free to register and use.</p> <p>2. Upload your photo</p> <p>3. Click on the "Direct Link" tab under your desired photo (at Photobucket anyway) and the correct link data is automatically copied to your computer clipboard. It would resemble this line....<span style="color: #0000ff;"> http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u172/dcrane_2007/fuelstand.jpg</span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #000000;">4. </span></span><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #000000;">Go to your message on this forum</span></span><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #000000;"> and place your cursor in your message where you want the image to appear.</span></span><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #000000;"> Then click on the little film icon at the top. <br /></span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #000000;"><img src="http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u172/dcrane_2007/sample-2.jpg" style="max-width: 550px;" border="0" /></span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #000000;">5. A popup template will appear over your message. Past the copied data from your clipboard into the box provided and hit "insert"</span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #000000;">Hope this helps.</span></span></p> <p>If you want to add something or doctor up the photo, use a photo editor like Adobe Photoshop or Windows Paint or anything like that and save the result as a jpeg and upload that jpeg to the online image host.</p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #000000;">(One cannot insert images stored on his/her computer unless he/she is hosting a web site on the computer and can provide the image link similar to the one shown.)<br /></span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><span style="color: #000000;"><br /></span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><br /></span></p>
