adding pictures

Post by rnrvmd »

Help! I am at an impasse. I have joined Imgur.com and uploaded pictures to the site. I clicked on Img and inserted the Imgur site between the two bracketed IMG's...and now am stumped. What have I missed or not done correctly?

Thanks

Too large ? I take mine right off the computer but they have to be small . If they are too large I down size them .

There should be a link you can copy that says "BB Code" or "Linked BB Code". Copy that and just enter it into your forums post...

I don't use imgur so don't know if you have access to a link like zedtwentyate mentions, but just going to the site and trying something I found the following worked:

- right click on the image
- select Copy Image Location from the dropdown
- go to the forum
- click on the Img button
- and paste the image location in between the tags

Don't use the URL for imgur at the top of the browser window - you need to use the more direct URL for the picture itself (ie - the Image Location)
