I have pictures in my files, jpg and such. I can't drag them to this message board, I can't copy and paste between my files and this message board...Does anyone know the BIG SECRET to putting pictures in with your messages?

I know it has to do with decompressing some widget and then converting the pixels to a streaming thing-a-ma-bobby...

WHY ISN'T THERE JUST A BUTTON FOR IT????

First you'll need to host them, you can do that here: http://imageshack.us/ ...then right click the picture, go to 'Properties' and copy & paste the URL into your message.

Is that what you mean?

Photobucket is good, Chris... that's how I learned to post recently. It makes a postable url for you when you upload your pic to it.

Here's the link... http://photobucket.com/




It's free, you just have to sign up.

Hope that works, I'm a newbie at this pic posting stuff.

Rat is correct that the pictures have to be hosted somewhere in order for you to post them within a thread on one of the discussion forums. However, you can directly upload them from your pc to the Blue Sun Room. Just click on any of the items in the BSR, such as the latest offering from mphillips, then look on the left side of the screen where it says "Author Options." Choose "Add Image" and follow directions from there.

Let's see if it works.

Nope, didn't. Back to square one.



There! Followed Rat's instructions and it worked perfectly. If this is someone's avatar and I have used it improperly, I apologize in advance, I'm still not up on that kinda stuff too well.
