Default Re: Trouble Understanding How...

If you're able to upload the photos, then posting is easy. And as note, we are working on a faster easier way to get images put in your posts from your albums. (I just noticed RFS replied, but here's some more information.)

But for now, simply upload your photo to whatever album you've created. Then go to that album, click on the thumbnail of that photo so you can view it in the larger size, then copy the BB Code: in the box underneath that image. You have three codes, Image URL: and Embed Code:, we're only interested in the BB code on the forum, though you can use the image URL.

So if you go to this image of mine:



The proper code would be
Code:
[img]http://www.shotcritic.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=1&pictureid=206[/img]
to post it on the forum. Just copy your BB code and paste it on the forum reply box where you want the image to be posted.

If you want to post an image from another site or actual URL, then you'd click the little picture icon on this reply box, and it will pop out a box for your to enter the URL of the image, sample URL for my same image is
Code:
http://www.shotcritic.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=1&pictureid=206
The embed code is more for building web-pages so you can "embed" the code in your HTML pages and that sample code for this image is
Code:
<img src='http://www.shotcritic.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=1&pictureid=206' style='border:1px solid #000000;' >
I hope that helps, thanks, rg sends!
