Not really a link to another site, but given the amount of queries we get on how to post piccies, I thought this would be the best place for a permanent "idiot guide".
HOW TO POST A PICCIE
1. Download piccies from camera to wherever you usually file them on your p.c.
2. Open up a Photobucket account in whatever user name you like - make sure you tick the "private" box on the Photobucket account, or other people can go in & look at whatever you've stored!
3. When the Photobucket home page is open, click on "my albums" tab, then "albums & upload"
4. There should now be a big box on screen that says "Upload images & videos". Click on the "choose files" button, then go to where you've stored your piccies. You'll see them on screen in a different window - this is when you highlight all the ones you want to be able to put on the Forum. Make sure you choose them in the size you want to post - "small" is good for siggie lines, "medium " is the size of my Allie trophy pics & "Large" is the ones that take up half the screen!
5. Once you've highlighted all the ones you want, click "open" in the window where you can see the piccies. This initiates the transfer process to Photobucket, so go & make a cuppa, coz it takes ages!
6. Once the piccies are in Photobucket, open a different window for the internet, so you can still access the SNERC Forum. Type up your new message & then go back into the Photobucket window to get your pics.
7. Hover over the piccie you want & you'll get a drop-down list of codes & links. You want the bottom one, titled "IMG Code". Click on & copy this code & then paste to wherever you want in your Forum message.
8. Preview to make sure its worked & then post your message!
Good luck & look forward to seeing piccies
