How To - Post pictures using Photobucket.

[Tops]

As there are plenty of people asking all the time I thought i would spread the word (if it seems very simple, i made it that way for a reason - its not condescending)



1. Sign up for a free account at Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket (takes moments)





2. Once the account is open if your not already there, you need to go to your album. This is done by clicking on 'My Album'.





3. On the right will be an 'upload' area. Click Browse.





4. Find the image on your computer you wish to upload and click 'open'





5. Once the image has uploaded it is now in your online album. You should see it beneath the upload area. Underneath the image are 4 links.
To post the picture in a thread select and copy (ctrl + v or right click & copy) the bottom one labeled 'IMG code'





6. Paste the copied URL into the post that you wish to make. It should look like the one below.





7. Press Submit and your done. Hope this helps

Good one Tops! This needs to be stickied somewhere IMO. It's easier for people to understand with pictures.

good guide

but I don't need to right click the image code, just left click and paste it into the post with the paste button on my keyboard.

Me too but its a noddy guide, that even the most computer illiterate person could follow. Gotta aim for the lowest common denominator.

I think that is an EXCELLENT guide, with fantastic pics! It should be stickied in every section of the picture section.
