Jeff Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 I need to ask a question, but I don't have a clue what this is and would like to show you a picture if possible. Can I do that? Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwerkin Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 IF the picture is less than 64K in size you can attach it to your post, but that can limit the image fidelity and uses bandwidth. Please review this nice post with graphics: http://caddyinfo.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=9759 on how to post an image to photobucket then link it back here.

Jeff Posted June 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 Do I use the insert image button above or do I just copy and past from my computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwerkin Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 If you are using the "Image clickable thumbnails for messageboards" coding you just copy and paste that into your post; then use preview to make sure you get the image and not code.

Jeff Posted June 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 "Image clickable thumbnails for messageboards" Man, I'm already lost- no wonder I can't work on cars! What is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwerkin Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 Woops, sorry, I assumed you read this reference post: http://caddyinfo.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=9759 To upload an image from your computer directly to the board here, while on the New Topic entry page, you go down to "File Attachments" and push the "Browse" button. Then you can navigate to the file on your PC. Then push the "Add attachment button" to upload the file to the board. Finally, push the "Add into Post" button (not visible until after you add an attachment) and that puts the image into your post at the current cursor location in the post. The file will only add if it is less than 64k in size for registered users or 100k in size for Supporters. The message here: http://caddyinfo.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=9759 explains how to load your image to photobucket.com instead of to the board, and then link from here to there. That's when you use the "Image clickable thumbnails for messageboards" which is a Photobucket.com option. Photobucket has a much larger limit to the image size, is easy to use, and does not count against our bandwidth on the board since it is served off their server. IF you already have the image on the internet someplace, then you can use the image icon while in the "new topic" edit mode and just type or cut and paste the address (URL) of the image.
