Okay. I give up. I've been trying to post a picture for the last half hour and can't figure it out. Anybody know how to do this? I guess it would be really nice if I wasn't so computer illiterate!!!
First you need to upload the picture to the internet so it has it's own URL. Most people use someplace like www.photobucket.com Then once you have uploaded the picture to (I'm going to assume you are going to use photobucket) photobucket then when you hover your cursor over the picture there will be a drop down menu that has 4 different ways to use the URL of the picture. The very bottom one is the one that will post the picture onto the forum. So just copy and paste that string of text here on the forum. I will write out below what the text should kindof look like, but I am going to use these brackets { } because if I used the proper brackets like these [] then the forum would think I was trying to post a picture and you wouldn't be able to see the programing string: So the text should look like this: {img}www.your picture URL here.jpg{/img} Hope that helps?
You almost got it on your post about Laundry Day. Your first IMG tag has a forward slash in it. The forward slash means "end" so what you basically telling the forum is {IMG (image start)}www.photourlhere.com{/IMG (end Image)}
