Posting pictures

[Train]

I'm trying to attach a picture to go with a question. It comes up in the preview but I get a message ( account to new to post pictures) How do I contact someone to fix this?

This must be something new, I have never had this problem.

If you have picture on a website, you can do the following

img src="www.somefreehost.com/picture.jpg"

You will need to put a < in front and > after the above line

Or ever simpler, got to http://www.freeimagehosting.net/upload.php

Then upload your picture and then they give you a simple url's that you can copy and paste into this forum. I just tried it with a picture of and old dodge truck:

<a href=http://www.freeimagehosting.net/>https://img3.freeimagehosting.net/uploads/e5feb02909.jpg bord

<a href=http://img3.freeimagehosting.net/image.php?e5feb02909.jpg

</a>

Good luck!

I"ve done the picture hosting thing and I don"t think that"s the problem. The picture comes up fine when I preview the message. I just found the email addy for support and sent off a message. I think you just used me as an exuse to show off your truck. Man does that thing ever look sharp.

Try putting the links in the message body, not in the url line at the bottom of the screen.

Actually, thats not my truck, it was forsale on ebay a few years ago and I save the pictures.

I use the new ytmag format, very easy for posting multiple pictures if you are using a photobucket .com example. When I log in to ytmag I go to ytforums.ytmag.com and I find it very easy to use. When posting the pictures from photo host I use 2 windows. This way it's just simple, I click on img code, copied, paste,

copy and paste

and just keep on copy and paste

once your done copy and pasteing you can click preview to look at your work, once the preview is done hit summit. Been a while since I have done mutiple pictures on the old format.
