I want to open up the pic file and paste it to a thread so it shows on SN without having open it again.

 

Open an account with Photobucket. Upload to there. Click the image button here and post the URL.

 

MMMMmmm?? Wheres the image button on here whats a URL??

 

bttt

 

url is the link to the picture which is located on photobuckets servers (when you have uploaded to photobucket)

click this url

Free Image and Video Hosting - Photo Image Hosting Site : Photobucket.com

upload your pictures and then put in the link in your post on SN

like this (example)

http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f1...s/DSCN0280.jpg

hope that helps

 

Calm down dear, it's only a photo

Do the photobucket thing, then under the image in photobucket you will see 3 fields.

URL link
HTML Tag
IMG Code

Click on the IMG code and it will say copied in a little yellow thingy.
Then just switch back to the browser page with your post on and simply paste the copied link.

It will look like this
[^IMG]http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c68/w_orbit/Prodrive_full.jpg[/IMG]

but without the little ^ in the [^IMG] which I had to put in or you would just see the picture, not the code

 

I beleive if you are not logged in as a member you will actually see the photo and not the link to one.

This was happening to me when i was logged on in Iraq and did not log in as i did not trust the communal computers.

Cheers folks
