Here is how you post a picture in the forums. If you want them in a gallery album, you just notify ALAN ROSENBERGER and He'll set it up. STEP1: Go to a hosting site and set up a free account to host your pictures. This can be done a lot of places but PHOTOBUCKET works best. It is free. Go here> PHOTOBUCKET.COM STEP 2: Upload your pictures there at photobucket and after they upload you will notice that they give you 7 options for posting them somewhere else. such as html, and many others including a "DIRECT LINK". Choose this option to post them here in the forums. STEP 3: Left click on the direct link URL at photobucket on the picture that you want to appear. Then right click on it and click copy. (Some browsers like Mozilla already copy it for you when you left click). STEP 4: In a separate browser window have the site here open so that you can keep repeating this process for multiple pictures without going back and forth opening new windows. Or If you just have one picture dont worry about it. Come to your post here and you will see a little blue square next to the smiley face and after the link icon and that is for a picture. You click the blue box and a box opens on the screen and asks for a "URL" of the picture. Put the curser in the empty space, and right click the mouse and press "PASTE" The URL from photobucket for your picture that you copied will apppear in the box. Click ok, and the picture will appear in the post. Thats it. If it does not work it is because of the settings that you made on your computer or the browser that you are using. It is not the site. Switch to MOZILLA FIREFOX or GOOGLE CHROME and you will not have a problem anymore. IF YOU HAVE A LOT OF PICTURES YOU CAN EMAIL THEM TO ALAN AND HE WILL MAKE YOU YOUR OWN ALBUM IN THE GALLERY! Seems that there is still a few people having problems posting pictures, hopefully this will clear them up, its very simple and possibly easier then following a video. 1. Create a photobucket account, it is free, all online sites accept photobucket, able to hold as many photos as you want. 2. Click " Upload Now " 3. Click the green box in the center of the screen labeled " Select Photos and Videos " 4. Find you photo files on your computer, click one to upload individually or hold CTRL and click to upload multiple photos/videos at the same time.
5. Click " Open " in the bottom right hand corner, you will then be directed here where you can view photo/video upload progress.
6. Once all uploads are finished, click the blue button that says " View Album "
7. Hover your cursor over the picture you wish to post and find the " Direct Link "
8. Click the direct link and it will automatically copy the direct link.
9. Find the thread you wish to post the photo to and click " Post Reply "
