Pic uploading

Post by Tom Harp »

been trying to upload a couple of pics to illustrate another question, but keep getting shot down. Followed the last set of hints I saw. Cyber stunted for sure. Clues anyone?
Thanks

Hey Tom...when you are inserting a pic, does the text look like this-the spaces are added so a broken pic link doesn't show up...

That's all there is to it

K...same thing should work...

The text to get that picture to show looks exactly like this, without the spaces on either end of the address...

Right click on the pic and click 'Copy Image Location' or highlight and copy the address from below the pic (that only applies to the Gallery here) and paste it between the brackets Image

Assuming you are following the guidelines here...

...it should work. That's exactly how it's done. How big are your pictures?

Tom, are you following the 'gallery' link in your profile (or in your posts) to the gallery? You are only allowed to upload into your specific gallery.

I guess the profile...if that is where it asks on the left of the page about adding items, I just found(Blind Hog syndrome) the "pull down" window(?) on the right side. Am I getting warm?

Look at your post in this forum, direclty under your text is a little button that says "gallery".

Click it.

When the page comes up you should see an option on the left that says "Add Item". Alternatively, the pulldown on the top right will also offer that option.

Selecting either will take you to the page that allows you to add photos to your gallery.
