illoyd Posted 4, July 2011 Report Share Posted 4, July 2011 Can anyone tell me the step by step instructions for posting photos. They are currently stored in picasa web and I know the procedure to get them onto other forums but not this one. Simple plain English and no jargon would be fantastic. Fir simplicity i want to leave the photos where they are and not go to photobucket etc. Many thanks Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHRIS-172 Posted 4, July 2011 Report Share Posted 4, July 2011 believe there is a thread on this somewhere.. essentially once you have the picture hosted externally you do the following 1. Copy the weblink to the photo. 2. Go to the relevant thread post 3. type in . 4. hit preview post to see if its worked. 5. If not post it anyway and some good forum moderator like Griffyn will edit your post to show the pic! Cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
