Posted: Fri Apr 10, 2015 12:05 Post subject: Using Photobucket to insert pictures into your posts |
|
|
* Start by creating an account at photobucket.com
* Once the account is created, this is the type of page you'll see before uploading any pictures.
* Click on 'Upload', and you will see a screen that allows you to drag and drop images from your PC.
* Upload your photos. (Note that it's not normally possible to upload directly from a USB-connected mobile phone. Copy the images from the phone and save in a desktop folder prior to drag and dropping to Photobucket)
* Click on 'View Uploads' to see your saved images.
* Click on the image you want to post in the forum and a new view will open. Look at the right hand pane and you will see a table under 'Share Links'. It's highlighted below:
* Click on the IMG row (anywhere) and the data will show 'Copied'
* Now go to the POCUK forum and create a post. Right-click in the message body area and select 'Paste'. This will insert the data needed in order to display your image that's saved on Photobucket. Press 'Preview' to see how it's going to look:
If it's too wide for a normal page, you're able to resize images within Photobucket.
* Once you're happy with the content, press 'Submit'.
Please keep your Photobucket account open even if you're no longer active on the forum! Otherwise your photos will not be available to others.

Good information Simon.
Maybe an Administrator can make this a "Sticky" to replace the one on there that has lost it's pictures for the Photobucket section. |

I can see other users' pictures on Photobucket, unless the images have links to web sites. Then they are replaced with an annoying message. See here for more info: Photobucket |

It seems to work for some photos but not others - a good find though. |
