Thanks SM. I tried to copy and paste the IMG address but it didn't work. There must be some setting that is blocking it. IP: Logged |

Here's YFIS' detailed instructions: http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/015151.html To "hotlink", ie post a pic that you've found somewhere on the net, right-click on the picture. In the popup menu, choose Properties. In the Properties dialog box, hightlight the entire Address (URL), starting with the "http" and ending with the file extension. Generally, you will only be able to link .jpg, .gif, and .bmp to display an image. Right-click on the highlighted Address (URL) and choose Copy. Come back to the LL text box, right-click and choose Paste. Put the [img] tag at the beginning of the URL Address (no spaces between tag and address. Put the closing [/img] tag at the end of your pic's URL Address (no spaces between tag and file extension). You can see how anyone else posted an image or any other code by clicking the "Edit" button of their post. You can't edit their post since you don't have their password, but you can LOOK at how they did something..... There are no settings that I know of here at LL that would "block" posting a picture. I generally use my own website to upload/link images, so I don't know how Photobucket or the other image-hosts work..... IP: Logged |
