Forum Issues

[JJphoto]

I often find myself deletingphotographs off of the site so that I can show a newer photo.

I had the same problem before, after neuroanatomist pointed out we can use other online image storages on other thread, I have started to use http://imageshack.us/ and it's been working pretty well.

Hmm, When using these types of services, does the picture display on the forum or just the link?


This is a test for me:

Hey Bob,


The image should show, not just the link. I'm far from and expert with html code and stuff but you need to include the right code to do it though. So for this image (linked to my flickr account) the code would be (minus the spaces inside each square bracket:


[ img ] http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4120/...a17d01e80d.jpg [ /img ]





the bits you need to add are in bold.

(I HOPE THIS WORKS OTHERWISE I'LL LOOK LIKE A PROPER DILL! [:S] )


If you use flickr then you can just open the photo in your photostream, click on "Share This", click "Grab the HTML" then click "BBC Code". Copy this link and past in into you post and it should show up like above with a link and the image.


Smart eh!

One more thing---This worked with my Zenfolio account, but you have to right click and select "share photo". It will then take you to a list of links for various sizes of the photo you selected, including 800 X ? pixels.Thiseliminates the need to convert to a smaller Jpeg---Really Cool.


Thanks again JJ

Needs to be like this:


[img ]link[ /img]


No spaces.

Don't take my word as gospel though Bob. I'm probably putting you on a bum steer. I'll double check to make sure.
