Title: Picture Test...
Post by: HtM on August 14, 2008, 01:49:24 PM
Trying to post a picture hosted by Picasa...

(https://lh5.ggpht.com/dbnoyola/ReTSsOPg-DI/AAAAAAAAAAY/2mIU-SrrLZg/s800/DSC_0490.jpg)

Got it!

Thanks JBubble.

Post by: HtM on August 14, 2008, 01:55:05 PM
Yeah, I think so.

When I'm in the Picasa account, on the right hand side of the screen, there is a space which reads:

HTML to embed in website

I thought the way to embed was to copy that text, and insert it between the IMG /IMG tags (with brackets), but that's not working.

Specifically, the copied text is:

<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/dbnoyola/NiceGuysMotorcycleClub/photo#5036381940486305842"><img src="https://lh5.ggpht.com/dbnoyola/ReTSsOPg-DI/AAAAAAAAAAY/2mIU-SrrLZg/s800/DSC_0490.jpg" /></a>

(https://lh5.ggpht.com/dbnoyola/ReTSsOPg-DI/AAAAAAAAAAY/2mIU-SrrLZg/s800/DSC_0490.jpg)

Got it.

Take the second link in that string and post it inside the img brackets.

[ img ]https://lh5.ggpht.com/dbnoyola/ReTSsOPg-DI/AAAAAAAAAAY/2mIU-SrrLZg/s800/DSC_0490.jpg[ /img ]

What you can also do is right click on the picture in Picasa and choose Properties. There should be a value called "Image Location". Copy and past that url and it should work too.

(actually, I have one more quick question, while I have your attention!)

I tried (in my Help! post) to hyperlink to Corsair Industries.  I successfully linked to it, but know there must be a way to avoid the long tag and substitute it for one word.

Example:
the link I was getting at is

http://www.corsair-industries.com/parts/Ducati%20Tools/Ducati%20Alternator%20Cover%20Removal%20Tool/ (http://www.corsair-industries.com/parts/Ducati%20Tools/Ducati%20Alternator%20Cover%20Removal%20Tool/)

However, I'd like it to link from just one word, in that particular case, the word THESE.

By wedging the http between the URL /URL tags, I got a link, but am I able to substitute the actual http text with a word or two to clean things up?

Again, thanks for your help.  You'd think still being (just) under thirty I'd be a little more computer savvy!
Title: Re: Picture Test...
Post by: jdubbs32584 on August 14, 2008, 02:41:36 PM
Good question. If you want to just shrink a url, you can go here: tinyurl.com (http://tinyurl.com)

In your case, it turns out like this: http://tinyurl.com/634tue (http://tinyurl.com/634tue)

I know theres a way to turn a word into a link. Lemme research. Hold please...

*insert cheesy hold music here*

The entire sig area is limited to 100 pixels (including your text).  This is the most likely cause of your issue.

What seems to be happening, for a reason I can't explain, is the picture doesn't appear on the forum until I go to your kodak gallery and view it.

Looks like you're trying to use the file path on your computer to share the image. You'll have to upload it to a website (most use Flickr or Photobucket or something similar) to share it on here.

Hope that helps.

View the image...not the thumbnail... on the hosting site and right click it.

If you are using IE click properties and copy the image location...if you are using firefox it will give you the option to copy image location.

Come here and paste the link in your post

Then highlight the link and click the (http://208.109.198.140/Themes/black22_11final_tp/images/bbc/img.gif)

Your link is above.

If you click it it takes you to your flickr page, but not the actual image address.

If you click the all sizes button and then copy that address you get the link that will work.
