the forum doesn't have stortage.

so you have to store the photo elsewhere and then link to it.

most of us use Flickr account (there is even a DML group for us!) it's free.

I then upload the photo to flickr, modify, comments ect.

then I choose the size I want and below the picture is the link that I insert into the message I post here.

Choose the image icon above the message box and (http://) will appear....

put your picture link address between those boxes.

You are in!

now...can you teach me how to search for users?

Open a Flickr account, upload your pics onto there and then load them from there onto here using the [img][img] option above.

The thingy next to the thingy that looks like a cone shell thingy.  ;D

Title: Re: help
Post by: Spider on May 16, 2008, 03:24:34 AM
right, one page you have open is flickr - under the picture there is a 'link address' copy that address. The other window/page/tab you have open is your message in this forum you wish to post.

when typing your message, press the second button to the left (picture frame)

(http://)

will appear, paste your flickr link inbetween the (http:// and the)

how's that?

praise the lord! Bazz is in!

now....you can use the same technique for adding in hotlinks to other internet sites....

3rd from the left is Hyperlink button.

if you press that [url] boxes will appear

you can now copy and paste an internet page address between those boxes and people can click and go to the site your showing...

big T - it was worth it just to see that bike and your Zards mate! great work!

 [thumbsup]

Bazz, you can now say to anyone "I just hyperlinked a url address cause i'm in a html rich format environment" then start telling people who you favorite barista is and that you like DJ ing when not at work. People will know you are truely IT.

Title: Re: help
Post by: Spider on May 17, 2008, 03:05:33 AM
check it out mate....look at the line there...

see how your line starts with a '[im'

but then the link is there you need to have the 'g]' after the img...you just missed it by one character...

so the rule is: start with the '(http://' , then the address you wish to link to, then the ')'

nearly there!

What he said can be translated roughly to:
Quote
Bazza, Maaate! Just tell them f*ckers "I bunged piccy in the forums!" then let people know which sheila at the truckstop you reckon pours the best cuppa, and that you like to throw a few bob in the jukebox and queue up a few acca dacca tracks after work. People will think you're a complete wanker!"

That right, Spider?  [laugh]

Bazz, I'm only doing a joke on the stereotype of some of the IT people down/up here, gone are the days were they embrassed nerd-dom, now they seem to have swung the other way and try and be so cool, well, it is funny! I personally like my geeks straight up.

Nothing wrong with Acca, tell me just hearing the start of Hell's Bells doesn't put a smile on your face!

I am that stereotype, I can only express myself though the keyboard, and I always wear a tinted visor because it's so bright away from my flickering fluro.... I'm nowhere near cool yet, maybe if I hang out here longer something might rub off  :P Now I better go and interface with wife 1.0 (the upgrade from girlfiend 5.2 reduced alot of funtionality)

seriously, in an era where people pay between $200 and $1000 to go see Sealion Dion, $35 for AC/DC would have to be a steal, deal, sale-of-the-make the beast with two backsing-century.
