and most webspace is accessible through internet explorer. You get an FTP address for your web area, paste it into the address bar, and it displays whats in your webspace. Then you can just drag files into it from your computer and they'll be uploaded.

Then just link them as said above.

But its easier to upload pics with todays FTP progs than it is to use you browser for general surfing. Just connect, and drag the files you want accross. Done!!!!

IMO, if you can find and register on scoobynet, then learn how to make a post, you sure as hell can upload a picture on your free ISP webspace. The days of upping via a shell and needing to remember many command, file format etc are back in the 80's.

Listen guys, this is just going round and round! If you go and look at other car owners club sites they have their own down loaders for pictures!
COME ON SCOOBYNET, lets get into the 21st century and get this sorted out!

It would make life so much easier. For instance i looked yesterday and i lost count how many times there were no pictures shown due to problems at Fotopic!!!!

Whose gonna front the thousands of pounds that'll be needed to store them and provide the extra bandwidth that'll be required?? (at least double what it is now, bbs' don't use that much as they work on modules)

what you do is charge a minimal amount for each member to join Scoobynet (which i'm sure most of us true members would be willing to pay) which would then raise the capital to cover your overheads in running a top spec website!
this would open the door to many more options, and as far as a larger bandwidth, most people have upgraded their computers to be able to operate at a more socialable speed, insteads of the pace of a snail...........

Yeap, a nominal (£20/yr???) subscription to allow uploads etc. BUT still free for others who dont want such features...

You need to URL it in brackets before your http and then /URL it in brackets after your 1164722.Then you should get a direct link.

http://mhawes.fotopic.net/photo.php?id=1164722

Here is one I did earlier.

As my post above.

Use url and /url in place of img and /img.

You can then put up the link to your page in your photo album.Making it clickable.

WHY DON'T YOU USE Image Station

Will take unlimited pictures, and allow you to create gallery. Click on properties of picture and you have the URL. No problems at all.

Why oh why you guys use it I don't know
All I ever get when you guys do, is a fotopic sign saying limit reached or whatever it says.......

Bluudy annoying........

Is there not a better service.... Have you guys not got any web space from your ISP ?????????

EDITED TO SAY FOTOPIC .... Still bluudy annoying...

I take you mean you got webspace with your internet provider?

If so then they can supply details on how to upload to photos.

if you already have the photo on web space, you can use BB Code in your post:
example:

img]http://www.davidaitchison.co.uk/images/howlow.jpg[/img

or in html:

"<img src="http://www.davidaitchison.co.uk/images/howlow.jpg">"

without quotes in HT<ML and with [ at the start of the bb code and ] at the end will both produce:



Easy!
