I've tried but can't figure it out.
How do I include a pic in a message in a thread?
Thanks

Thanks You have to have the appropriate tags... Host the image somewhere, and use  tags.

It won't show the pic though. It'll only create a hyperlink to the pic.

use imageshack or simillar .. works a treat .. also if appropriate use the resizing option for 640x480 .. or it stretches the forum outside of normal screen veiwing size.
@ Michael ( eeeps sorry ) .. thanks for the lesson there .. I never realised you could edit the URL just to include the img. ty

From: Bradley Bracken I tried that but was using Flickr. Maybe it doesn't work from there or maybe I just had a typo. Thanks Michael. I use Flickr all the time in the Gallery. However, if you try to copy the image location from your main pic page, it adds unnecessary characters at the end of the URL. Remove anything after the image extension (.jpg, etc) or click 'All Sizes,' choose a size, and scroll down for a URL. Oh, and the tags should have plain brackets all the way through...Michael slipped in a curvy one there.

From: Bodhisatva Paperclip I can't wait to see what he wants to show us! LOL. Nothing too exciting. I went ahead and posted the links in the "What is a Deformer Thread". It's not the first time I've been frustrated trying to figure this out though, so glad I know for next time. |
