Title: How to insert image into posting?
Post by marknixon on Jun 24th, 2012 at 9:20pm
I have had several attempts at inserting images into my postings - with complete lack of success.

I think I have followed all the instructions , such as:-

1. Click on 'Insert Image' icon, which produces insertion point between 'img' and '/img'.
2. Upload image to ImageShack.
3. Copy image's ImageShack URL to clipboard.
4. Paste image URL to indicated point between 'img' and '/img'.
5. Send posting.

But it has never worked for me. All I get is a large space in the posting.

Can anybody help? I've tried the YaBB Help Center but that hasn't 'helped'!

Hi Mark.

When I select an image from ImageShack, I select the Forum Code option, which looks like this:

Code (][url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/822/20125295857198.jpg/): http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/7763/20125295857198.jpg[/url]

Uploaded with ImageShack.us


Then I change it so that I only have the location of the file, between the 'IMG" and "/IMG' by removing everything else except this:

BTW Markoz, how did you get that P-51D to shoot down the jet? Is that in FSX? Looks like it...

Hey can someone help me with an avatar?

Usually you upload the picture directly to the site but here seems to want a url.
So I uploaded my resized avatar to imageshack and that didn't seem to work so then tried uploading to the Nikon site that I have an account with and that wouldn't work either.

Help...!  :)

EDIT: This is what I'm trying to install.
Now I can't seem to post "normal" pictures.  :o
Something has gone wonky...

OK I can get it up here but not into my avatar.
EDIT:EDIT Now I can see it but it's soo bloody small!
