S.O.S. HELP
« on: December 19, 2016, 01:12:06 PM »
 Will someone explain to me how to insert a picture from my email into a post? I tried the "insert image" icon but nothing. Everything is easy when you know how to do it but confusing when you don't.

Hi JoJo,
can you upload it?  facebook, picasa, Youtube, other web site?  I don't know how to do it from your desktop unless it is virtual and/or shared - like linux or chrome OS can do.
The tagging system used on this site uses URL's like the one below - to create the picture shown.  if you can point to the url, the system will know its an image based on the brackets.
the web site here doesn't have enough room to host all the images, PDFs and videos so it uses links to the heavy data items.  - more info is available here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBCode.
*moderators, if this has changed, please let me know.
so a link is taged with URL and an image is IMG.
versus http://i.imgur.com/S4HBG.jpg which is a link to the image.

One way I do it the imgur.com thing or

Save pic to my hard drive.

Click the Attachments and other options just below.

In the Attach: box

Click Browse and find the link on my hard drive and click it

Then when all finished click the Post button.


And it comes up like this one.

But this way is not qood way to use.  It takes longer and gobs up the server here.

If you need a second magazine, its time to call in air support.

God created Man, Col. Sam Colt made him equal, John Moses Browning turned equality to perfection, Gaston Glock turned perfection into plastic fantastic junk.
