How do you upload photos on here i must be a total spak!! I can drift my zed round polhil roundabout at 2am but i cant put photos on my gallery,been tryin to do it on my phone...is that where im going wrong?????.....arggghhhh

Save them to photo bucket or similar and then use the add image button on the browser and paste in the 'direct link' to the image.

 

PS, not sure if you meant it as a joke but boasting about drifting on public roads is not very clever and will result in a barrage from members on here.

I managed to use my phone to upload pictures somehow but the files were so big I think I have no space available now (Not sure what the limit is)

An idiot’s guide to posting pictures.

1. Firstly you will have to set up a Photobucket account, http://photobucket.com/

2. Sign up and fill in the details, I use the same details as my 350z details so I don’t forget.

3. Once you have created an acount sign in and you will see a green box with UPLOAD NOW. Click this and you will be prompted to upload photos from your computer by pressing the green tab which says SELECT PHOTOS AND VIDEOS click this.

4. This will then take you to your computer.

5. Select the destination where you have saved your photos.

6. Highlight the photo or photos which you want to upload and click OPEN.

7. This will then set the upload to your Photobucket album. (The more photos you upload the longer it takes)

8. Once the upload is completed you will get a sign asking you if you want to upload more photos or save and go to your album (click this)

9. Once you have gone to your album to select a picture hover your cursor over the picture and it will bring up a action box, click in the small square box to choose the picture. When you go to the next picture you want to upload there will be a blue boarder around the selected photo.

10. Continue doing this till all the photos you want to upload are selecgted.

11. Once you have done this go to the botom of the page and you will see a light blue tab CHOOSE ACTION. Click this and then click the GENERATE LINK CODES FOR SELECTED

12. The option you want for posting to the forum is marked IMG for bulletin boards & forums put you cursor over either the thumb nail or the Full size image box and left click once this will then copy the link.

13. Paste the link into the posting box on the forum and click submits.

 

To put an Avatar onto the forum is just as easy.

 

1. Click on the User control tab, top left of the forum page

2. Click profile

3. Edit avatar Now do the same as uploading a photo from Photobucket the only difference is when you generate the link go to the bottom of the page where it says, Direct link (Email, IM and more)

4. Copy this into the box where it says, (Link off-site: Enter the URL of the location containing the avatar image you wish to link to.)

5. Remove the numbers in the Avatar dimensions box and click submits.

 

Photobucket has a free application for the Android phones.

Upload existing media from your local camera roll on your Android or new shots directly to your Photobucket album
