Trying to post photos

[TraderB]

Can anyone tell me where to find info on DC about posting photos. This is all new to me!

I can`t find any info on posting pics either and I`m not an expert but I`ll try to help you out.

If posting a pic in a thread, you should either save it locally or your hard drive and attach it as a file or you can post the web link/url to the pic in your test if the pics are hosted on a website you use.

If posting a pic in the photo gallery, I have only had luck attaching pics that I have saved on the hard drive, not sure about linking to photos posted on a web site but hopefully someone else can help you there.

If you have photo editing software try to keep the pics from being huge but I believe the photo gallery can usually resize them. Hope that helps

I just posted a couple of photos in the gallery. I will try to post them in this thread, as soon as they are approved.

Until then, the following instructions should work to make photos show up in the thread.

- Right click on your photo in your gallery
- Left click properties
- Highlight and copy the (http address URL)
- Click the IMG button
- Left click and paste the http address of photo from gallery
- Click OK

Here are two photos of a Sea Ray boat that I detailed last season and I`m getting ready to detail again this spring.

Just a note about making an image show up in the thread. When you right click on your photo in the gallery, you may be able to then just click `copy this image` rather than `highlight and copy`

when you hit post reply there is a lil box down below that says attach file -

click the browse button and this will browse back to your computer -

you can navigate to your directory where your pics are an attach them (there is a file size limit but 800x600 jpg files should be okay )


see like this :lol

Well, I have uploaded a photo to my gallery. It is pending approval. So do all photos have to be approved before they can be posted? Can you place photos into a thread without putting them into the gallery first? I tried to put the photo into a new thread and it didn`t work. Also it took forever for the photo to upload. I know I have a slow connection but that seemed to take a long time, seemed like 5 minutes or so. Hope some one can expain all this.

Oh, and that magazine, does that mean it has the highest circulation in Australia or does it sell for more money than any other magazine?????????
