Attaching pictures?

Used to, on your message form there was ‘my files’ and you could upload pictures real easy. I just tried posting something and did not see that. How do you add pictures? I see the freight shed, when I click on that I get a browsing window with 'form file’s. I click on that and my old pictures are there but I don’t see how to add any?

For now you need to put the files in your shed first. Click the Freight Shed tab above then you will see an Upload Files tab.

Thanks Jon, I did it.

No problem Jerry. You should probably post in the Websit/Site Issues thread that the Upload capability is missing from the editor freight shed button so Bob sees it.

[Gawd I miss my spell checker]

Not to worry, Jon, Fred is still around. He’s more then happy to be the “grammatical policeman”…:wink:

well, let’s test it. my newest loco (http://kormsen.info/locos/bilder/lok-jan13.jpg)

Edit: just as before. pics stored somewhere else on the net need just their address, no tags around it.

The html/bbc code seems to be html only:

but get thier code, and just strip away everything but the jpg reference:

No kidding. Do you see my reply to him in Bruce’s website tips thread ?

We love you Fred. Place wouldn’t be right if oyu didn’t chime in with the voice of authority :slight_smile:

Are we still able to post from image hosting sites like photobucket?

Sure. Use the Direct Link in Photobucket’s Share dialog.

I am new to the Forum, and would like to add pictures to a new topic. Do I have to purchase a ‘Freight Shed’ before I can add pictures?

that depends.

if you got your pics somewhere else in the net, you need nothing.

then you just write or copy the address http… /somewhere…/somepic.xxx into your post, where the pic shall appear.

but the pic must be somewhere on the net, not on your homecomputer. that can be the in the freightshed, in any picture storage provider or on other rented space.

David,

You can upload photos here to the site without purchasing a freight shed. It used to be called “My Files”, but I believe it’s all just “Freight Shed” now. Purchase of the Freight Shed gives you more space.

Yep, or you can make “albums” in your profile. Lots of ways to share photos!

I tried but I got the red “x”. Ken did you use the image code or direct link?

I figured it out. I had a pop up blocker that was stopping it from working.

Terry

Direct Link…to aswer your question…

I tryed to buy extra freight shed but it wouldnt let me do it.
