Tutorial on how to embed pictures in your post

[Skimmer]

This is how you can put pictures in your post.



First load your picture to the web or wherever your favorite place might be.
Exp. Snap fish or Facebook, deviant art, your own website etc. as long as the link to the picture is in place and not just the link to the webpage that the picture is on.

Copy the link to the picture, it should end with .jpg, Usually you can right click on the picture and select "Copy image URL"

Reply to or start a post.
In the tool bar under 'Add Tags:' click on the little picture icon between the link button and the email button.
This will bring up [ img ] [ /img ] when you have that up paste the link to your picture between the two brackets.

like so;
[ img]link-to-your-image.jpg[/img]

and that will embed the picture to your post. Be sure your image size is not gargantuan or it will take up your whole post.

Happy posting.

Trying... to.... post.... pics...... Ahhhh!

Merlin,

I went in to see what the picture link was that you were trying to post and it comes up with an error at Flikr, That must be were the problem lies.

I've posted a picture in your post to make sure there wasn't a problem. It seems that Flikr doesn't store the picture as separate file.

The picture I use is from an other free site that I use for my artistic shots called deviant art. www.deviantart.com/

You will need to upload the picture and then right lick on it and Copy image URL.

That should do the trick.
