How to show pix in a message ?

abl1111 · #1 04-08-2003, 06:03 PM

How do you hyper-link, or just 'place' a picture in my message ? I wanted to put a picture or two of a project I'm doing. I think I have all the necessary software but I cannot figure it out.

Any input ?

Thx

You need space on a web server somewhere. If you don't have it, send your pictures to John R. He loves pictures of SeaCrafts. [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

OK - I made a new user for everyone to add their pics to be used on Classic Seacraft...

Go to: http://www.theboatzone.com/gallery/

and login as username: classic and password: seacraft .

You'll find an album titled Classic Seacraft Pics, slect that album and in the upper right, chose "Add Photos" . You will get a new window asking you upload photos. Chose browse and search on your hard drive to find the photos (boats or fish - no nekkid ladys [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img] ). Then hit "Upload Now". This will take from a few seconds to a few minutes depending on Internet speed. Once donw, hit "dismiss" on the Add Photo window. The picture will now be up on the Classic Seacraft Album...

There is a "FAQ" button on the top of this page it is great for "how To's" here is what it says:

In order to add an image to your message or your signature, you must have the image already available on a web server. This can be an image on your own personal web page, for example. To place an image within a message, simply use the following Markup Tag:

[image] http://www.url_to_image.com/image_name.gif [/image]

For example, if you have an image called cateye.gif and its available from your own website at http://www.mywebsite.com/pics, then you would use the following image markup:

[image] http://www.mywebsite.com/pics/cateye.gif [/image]

You can do the same for your signature. Click the My Home option found on any page. Then, under the Main Configuration heading, click on "Personal Information, email, password...". Look for the Signature box, and enter your desired information, including any images/markup as above.

Note: To keep the forums loading quickly for everyone, it is recommended that you do not exceed 35k for your image size
