posting pictures?

[Duck Commander]

I need some help on how to add pictures to my posts.

Directions on the Life in General Board if you haven't seen them. Took me a few tries to get it right.

If you still can't get it, you can email them to me and I can post them for you if you like.

Not to hijack your post or anything but it does not seem to work for me either. everytime I try to upload the pics to the galleries then it gives me an error page.

[Wang]

probably the wrong file type or pic is to big.

[Jeremy]

that means your pics are too big you have to resize them to less than 200K i think

I got the info. I'll try it now.
Thanks for all your help,

It keeps saying that it can't find the page that you upload to.

I had the same problem, definately the pic file is too large.

Thanks for your help guys. After a half hour of trying to find a program in my pc that would let me change the size of the file, I finally figured it out.

I've found it very easy and conventent to set up an account at photobucket.com. You upload your pics there and it automatically resizes them so they aren't so big that you have to scroll sideways to see them fully.

Then, you just copy and paste the [IMG] code below the picture you want in your post.

Example: [IMG]]http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y261/Erich_870/Christmas05pics013.jpg[[/IMG]]
(There is an extra set of [ ] on the outside to force it to show the code)

and it magically appears like this:



Then you don't have to worry about resizing and they are much larger than can be normally hosted directly on to Ifish.

Hope this helps. I LOVE seein everyone's pics. That's the best thing about the internet. Keep them coming, and if you don't post pics, shame on you! :lurk:

PS, that's a pic of my Golden Pheasant. He's tame enought to pick up
