I have seen a lot of people stating they can't post an image on these forums so i am going to try and explain how.

First off you will need a couple of things they are 1) The image to display and 2) an image hosting web site ( I use my own web site and upload my images to display there)

ok

Step 1 )  Start your forum off then click on the insert image button as shown here :-

This will open a Dialog box that you fill in to tell the forum where the image is located

 

Step 2)  The location Dialog box

  Fill out the Image URL make sure you get it correct or it won't work if you used upper case letters you must use them etc. Then all you need to do is click on the insert  button that is it your image should show up straight away in the forum you are writing.

that works if you are bringing the photo in from  a hosting site, but...if you are writing a post or replying, and you are moving the photo from your computer directly here, that wont work... you have to hit options on your first screen, and ....well, here it is in another post from a while back.. good luck   http://www.whatbird.com/forums/forums/thread/18738.aspx

Hi Birdseye I was aware of the post you have mentioned I should have linked it to this post as I couldn't see the point in repeating a post that was already in place my boo boo for not linking it to my post thanks for bringing it to my attention

thanks Peter

hey Kiwi.. your post was good. it covered it if they have a website, but don't work  if they were downloading from your computer...cuz it only asks for a URL, and my ccomputer don't have one... that is the only reason i linked to the old post, to save me the  time and effort to type it all out again , and do the kinda job you did.

very true so between the two of us we have covered both ways in which to do this as I stated in my original post you had to have an image hosting site for it to work and I was going to include your method's link in my first post. My IE (thankyou Bill Gates) froze and I had to restart everything all over was so ticked I forgot to add your link

Regards Peter
