Aileen1968 -> I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 5:31:27 PM)

Can someone please walk me step by step in how to embed a pic into my post.




Sanity -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 5:35:13 PM)

Go to a website, right click on the pic, click copy image location, then paste it between [img]and[/img]

Preview it because some pics just won't work.

Or just upload a pic from your hard drive, you can also save images to your and drive and use the "upload" feature to upload them.

And you're far from an idiot Aileen, I love your posts. Literally... [:)]

Thanks. Happy birthday.
Gonna run down to test and try it out.



ThatDamnedPanda -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 5:38:23 PM)

If you reply using the "post reply" button at the bottom of the thread, the window that opens up will have an "embed picture in post" checkbox. Check that box and it will allow you to use any image on your hard drive.



Aileen1968 -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 5:42:15 PM)

I tried that. I then upload and it says upload successful, but no image appears.



Sanity -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 5:47:00 PM)


Thats odd, thats never happened to me. Its said the image was too large and refused the upload but if it said it uploaded the image its always displayed for me using that method.



Aileen1968 -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 5:56:23 PM)

Nothing. Nada. No image shows up. I check the embed box. Upload from my hard drive and nothing shows up even after it says the image was uploaded successfully.



DesFIP -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 6:23:59 PM)

It won't show it in preview for me but it does if I hit post. I don't know why preview doesn't see it but it doesn't.



Aileen1968 -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 6:25:54 PM)

let me try...





Aileen1968 -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 6:27:32 PM)

Ooops. My that was a large cow. Must try again.



Aileen1968 -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 6:29:41 PM)

Attempt # 8,462

Are you posting pics of Rosie O'Donnel?



Aileen1968 -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 6:31:34 PM)

Ha...no. the first cow test I did was huge.



Termyn8or -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/19/2009 9:43:47 PM)

By George I think you've got it.

BTW, who the hell is George anyway ?

Sanity -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/20/2009 4:47:49 AM)


That must have been the problem, beside the file size maximum I think they can only be so wide and so tall. I'm not sure what the exact requirements are, but it looks like you've got it figured out.

purepleasure -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/20/2009 4:57:50 AM)

you can't embed a pic in a post that's over 200 mb.



Sanity -> RE: I'm an idiot... (11/20/2009 5:11:51 AM)


Or so many pixels wide or tall either (I believe). I think the limit is a thousand pixels, but like I said, I'm not sure. I've looked but I'm having difficulty finding a Faq that covers it.
