Hi Acester!

Go to the 'quick reply' massage box. Under it, is a button called: 'Go advanced' click it! Then click on button: Manage Attachment. (bmp gif jpe jpeg jpg pdf png) There U can upload your pics from your computer. Wait a bit and everything will work

Try it here in this testing forum

thanks guys...but i just realised i wrote something wrong

but it still took me a while to figuire out how to post pics

what i meant was how do you post a pic on a mac...WITHOUT it being an attachment...I've noticed people have done that

i have never been able to figure it out myself...
all my pics are attachments...but none of my pics ever disappear either...
so maybe it's better that way...?...

Anyone know how to downsize a picture? Cause I tried to attach one, but my pictur'es 1.39 MB, and the limit is 300 KB or something... Help?

acester,

Simplest way on a mac: control-click the image you want, then select "Open Image in New Window" from the pop-up menu. In the new window, copy the url (web-address) of the image; it should be something like "http://www.blah.com/blah/blah.jpg." When you're composing your message, type "[IMG]" (opening tag), then paste the url, then type "[/IMG]" (closing tag). No spaces (or quotes!) between the opening and closing tags. If it's a valid url, your picture should appear.

damn...maybe i read it wrong...

droogist · 02-05-2005

No...what you just tried to do is post an image from your computer. That's not possible this way; the image has to be already loaded onto a server, i.e. it has to be up on someone's website. (Do you have an account with photobucket.com...?)

The syntax is correct though.
