post pic?

[Canadave]

I want to post a couple of pics, but "Attach file" didn't work. What should I do?

Thanks,

Cd

First you need a place to host your pictures. There aretons of places that do it. A bunch of people use

http://system.freepgs.com/ as wel as fotki.com

Then you just use the IMG tag, + url of your photos.

Thanks, Dalexs!

I tried that, but the result is not what I wanted. I don't want to add a link to this message, but the actual photo as others have done. Know what I mean?

Anyone?

I think you have to ante up and pay the piper to post like that. At least that is my experience. You can link to Fokti, but can't show the pic here. Fedora

You mean to post pics like Zohar did in this thread?

Pay who?

What he means is, if you have a free Fotki account, it won't allow you to post a picture directly in your thread, you can only link to it. If you pay the $30 yearly fee for your Fotki account, you can then post a pic directly. The piper he refers to would be Fotki. I have a couple Fotki albums, but I use the free account. For hosting images online I use either Freepgs.com (popular choice and easy to use) or freepichosting.com (a bit more complicated and involved, but you can host a lot more images.) Hope this helps...

Thanks GCR. When I try to register at Freepgs.com, they are asking for "Website information". Any idea what they want? Should I give the info for this website?

Thanks again,

D

That's not what they are looking for, I just made something up. All you have to do is type SOMETHING in that field to get it to work. I'd just put something like HATPICS or whatever. It just can't process the application with that field left blank. Hope this helps.

Thanks again, that worked. Now I'll wait for "approval" and give it a try!

OK, here's a test...

Woohoo. Thanks for the help, GCR. It cost $3, but it was worth it.

Thanks, Canadadave, for asking that question, and all you other guys for answering. I (and I bet some other folks) needed that same info.
