Help??

I posted my photos to village photos.com and they are smaller than 200 x 200 and less than 10K. I followed the instructions, but can't get the little boogers to post into a message. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

I always had problems at VillagePhotos. Photobucket is much better IMHO.

Hmm... are you trying to post a picture to your profile or as an avatar? Those dimensions are fine for the picture in your profile, but still too big for avatar use. Avatar size is 100x100 and less than 6k.

Also they need to be in either .gif, .jpg, .jpeg or .png format.

Scottidog,
who is so impressed that Zelda didn't start a whole new topic. ::bigups:

What makes you think we want to see pictures of your boogers?

Awh thanks Scotti. I needed that compliment right now - I feel like a moron!

I'm trying to post photos to a message. I scanned in the page from Memory Makers and then had some photos of my Weird Al scrapbook that I wanted to share with the class... ;) I followed the directions on the tutorial. I thought it might a problem with my Mac, so I moved everything over to our PC. No luck! I'm ready to give up! Any advice??

Oh. Why didn't you say so...

You need to know what the link is then you would use the buttons at the top of the screen where you post your messages.

To get Image

you would type in

Code: Select all

[IMG]http://home.centurytel.net/scottidog27/mamaicon.jpg[/IMG]

Forgive the picture, it's what happens to be in my clipboard at the moment...

I just read my message and it's clear as mud...

You post pictures directly in the post you are making. So first click on "Add Reply" (if you use fast reply, the buttons won't be there.) Then look for the button at the top that says "IMG" click it and paste the URL where your picture is located, then click ok (or close... I can't remember exactly.)

You can just type in the code and it would look like this

Code: Select all

[IMG]http://home.centurytel.net/scottidog27/mamaicon.jpg[/IMG]

except, of course with your image's URL, not mine.
