Liam's Z Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 I think this is the reason why I can't post pics.... "Can I post Images? Images can indeed be shown in your posts. However, there is no facility at present for uploading images directly to this board. Therefore you must link to an image stored on a publicly accessible web server, e.g. http://www.some-unknown-place.net/my-picture.gif. You cannot link to pictures stored on your own PC (unless it is a publicly accessible server) nor to images stored behind authentication mechanisms such as Hotmail or Yahoo mailboxes, password-protected sites, etc. To display the image use either the BBCode tag or appropriate HTML (if allowed)." Can anybody recommend a decent website 2 use? Thanks in advance Liam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chesterfield Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Liam, You should be able to attach images to your posts, though there is a file size limit to this, if you keep it under 200kb you should be OK. Or you could use your free gallery space, and link to the image there? Again, the smaller you make the files, the better performance will be, and also the less chance there is of the server software that creates the thumbnails, throwing a wobbly there will be too. Other than that you can try imageshack or photobucket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I have added the URL (below) of an image which is in my album in the Gallery, in the hope that this will appear as part of my signature. Is this the correct way to do it? Jim http://www.350z-uk.com/gallery/albums/u ... /P4040009_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
