I know this has been posted before, but could someone pls explain once again how to post pictures? I have promised pics of my Tundra to those who expressed some interest in my modest setup, but my time is becoming quite limited and I have not been able to figure out how to do it. Pls give me step by step directions so that I can get this done. Thanks.

Follow Tile's advice and upload the pic to photobucket.
Once the pic's in photo bucket, you'll notice under the picture, 3 strings of text/URL gobley gook. copy the complete line that starts with : [ I M G
Paste that string into your response here.
done.
/sorry T-man. Your advice on the gen was too much for me. I needed to dumb it down, for the slower folks (like me). ;)

Thanks a lot guys. You seem to have really laid the process out step by step. Now let's see if I can follow the simple directions and finally get my pics posted within the next day or two.

This is the way Drewster taught me. Go to Imageshack http://imageshack.us/ Click on the box next to file, Then click browse and find the image you want to upload, once you find the image and click it, the file name will appear in the box. Then click the box for resize image? Pick what size you want. Usually email and websites. That size is good so it won't be huge here on the forum and will fit the page. Then click "Host it" box. Once the picture is hosted or uploaded, go to the last string, it will say direct link to image. Which will be something like http://img489.imageshack.us/img489/2519/galenzy4.jpg . Highlight the string, right click your mouse, select copy. Come to your post, click on the little box above the smilely faces, third from the left on top row. Its a picture frame. You'll get brackets, Click between the brackets and paste the direct link to image string the click post. Then a picture will appear with the post.

Galen,
I've beenhaving toruble with image shack for a few months now. I think it's because I updated my browser or need to update it...I dunno.
I actually prefer Photobucket (free, just like image shack). After uploading the pic to photobucket, they give you 3 pre formated url strings, you just pick/cut the string that is appropriate for what you are doing. (in our case here, it's with IMG brackets.

I just stick with what you taught me. Its easy and have not had any trouble with the process. But I can see that the other site might be easier.

I followed your instructions, but lost you after your line that read:
-after uploading is completed the pic will appear in your new album
After that....there were too many words for me. I had to re-read it several times (hey, I was only on my first cup of coffee). ;). I like P-bucket, as once it's in your album they have the URL lines formated already for you. There's no need to use the image icon that is here, in this forum. It's a straight cut n paste.
Keep those instructions handy. Like clockwork, every 3 months or so, someone calls out for them. :)

Ohhhh I guess you were taking to TILE man not Tman!!!! I am tman short for tool man because I buy tools for a living with someone elses money!!!! Gravy.
Yea photo bucket is the way to go. To sum this up you need a web based album that this web board can draw from for it's photo inserts. Once you have an album stored at a web based storage whatchamacallit you can draw from it to post pictures here.

Thanks Drewstar, I tend to get a little carried away sometimes.

I switched to phot bucket a few weeks ago and find it to be so much better than image shack. I like how easy it is and that it makes the links for you, so all you have to do is copy and paste.

OK OK I'll try photopail But if my computer shoots craps.

Chad;
I posted some photos of my new Caldera today and the one photo of my house was all distorted, mainly the lines from the siding. Any idea what happened?

Tony,
I think if you upload them bigger, say 640 x 480 or larger, they'd appear more clearly.
Chad
Btw, nice set up. I bet it will look even better with a closer veiw. 8-)
