Ok, well, looking at the 3 attempts there, we'll start with those, as they all have something in common. From the part of the address that I see, it looks like you are using Image Shack, which is fine. ___What you do not have in any of the below is a complete address to an image, i.e.
A complete address to a picture on Image shack would look something like this: http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/5964/bigsandlittlessignature.jpg (this is the url address of my signature, for example). ___Now, lets say that I wanted to show that as a picture, I would copy that full address from the http:// all the way to the extension .jpg and wrap it in image tags, like this: [img]http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/5964/bigsandlittlessignature.jpg[/img] and that would show my signature picture as below: ![]() Now the next part would depend on how you are using image shack. If you are using the web interface, and you upload a picture, you should see something like what is posted on the top of the thread I pointed you to above, i.e. : (picture stolen from said thread and edited for size) ![]() In this image, highlighted in blue is the direct address to the image. As you can see, this makes for a fairly large picture and while most people are on broadband, if you have enough pictures of this size in a thread, that thread will load very slowly. If you are on dialup, it would most likely make your thread unreadable. ___However, there is an alternative, and you see it highlighted in pink. Best part, all you need to do is click on that, it will highlight the whole line, copy that and paste it into your post. What it does is give you a linked thumbnail, much like that smaller picture you see of the car, which people can then click on if they need more detail. Here is what the above picture looks like as a linked thumbnail : ![]() By the way, if you read to the bottom of the thread I linked to up there, you will also see that Image shack offers a convienant upload program (which is what I use). I tried to make the instructions for using it as clear as possible, but if you would like to try it and need further help, feel free to ask. Good luck and happy posting ![]() |
