I have taken a few pictures of my delamination issue, but have tried several ways to get them on the forum with no positive results. Can someone give me directions to post a few pictures.
thanks

aatauses,

When you post... try using the button below that is labled "Go Advanced". You will see that post location has a "Tool Bar" and next to the "SmileyFace" you will find a "Paper Clip"

Use the "Paper Clip" to attach photos.

Hope this helps...

You can also use the 'manage attachments' button when posting

You have to make sure your file (picture) is NOT too BIG. If it is the picture will not upload.

There is another way. If you wish to put larger pictures in the forum you can go to a place like Photobucket and have it give you a URL to paste directly into the post. It would look something like this. I removed the first [ and the last ] so you can see the proper code I copied from Photobucket.

Below is what the image would look like correctly pasted into the post.
Hope this helps..

Here's a tutorial:

Be sure to resize your images to about 800x600 before uploading them.

If you end up linking to your own hosted images instead, the size restriction is not as critical.

Thanks everyone---I will be out for a few days and when I get back will try your suggestions so you can better see what I am talking about with the side delamination on the bottom of the slides.

I have read this thread and some links. However, I still can't get a picture in my signature. I am using photobucket and have resized my picture to less than 500 x 100. Now I am getting a message, "This GIF image has the incorrect file extension." I am using the URL supplied by Photobucket, but there are 4 choices (Email & IM, Direct Link, HTML Code or IMG Code). Could I be using the wrong one? Any help is appreciated.

The URL I am using ends with .jpg. Any knowledge of Photobucket?

K-F are you using the signature picture helper, below the text typing box. see screen shot below.

Yes, I am. I'm using the line for "the image on another website". Is that the right one to use?

I just used the "copy image location" option on an on-line image and paste it into the "the image on another website". and it works for me

I cannot get pictures from photobucket into the signature, but an image from my blog works and pictures from the computer are really easy. I'd just stick with files from your computer. just save it as a .jpg and upload to this site.

I am not familiar with Photobucket.
