Mark (smokey mow) Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 First off you'll need a Photobucket account, if you don’t have one already then you’ll need to sign up to one from here http://www.photobucket.com/ For PC and Windows users keep reading, for iPad and iPhone users skip to post2 Once you have an account you’ll need to upload your photos to it from your PC, if you’re not sure how to do this then follow the instructions on their website . Once uploaded navigate to the directory where you saved them. Double click on the IMG Code displayed below the photo you want to use, which will highlight it. Then either right click and select copy or alternatively use the keyboard shortcut of “ctrl C”. You can also obtain the IMG code if you are viewing a single photo, the IMG Code appears in the image links box on the right hand side of the screen. Click on the IMG code and it will automatically copy the code to the clipboard for you. To insert the image in your forum post, type your reply and then either paste the IMG code using the paste icon on the toolbar or paste by using the keyboard shortcut “ctrl V” When you then post your message the image will be displayed. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Are you using Internet Explorer? there are issues with the latest versions - some cut and paste operations don't work. Personally I always use Firefox - given a choice, which works fine. Google Chrome is also popular, and of course there's Safari too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Colonial Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 You won't be able to cut and paste from a Word document - the photo has to be on the Internet already, so that will not work. Dont forget you've got Gallery space for photographs with your WSCC Membership here in the forum - see here: http://forum.wscc.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic/107167-how-do-i-add-photos-to-my-forum-gallery-and-then-my-posts/ As has been said above, Internet Explorer is not liked with the forum software - Firefox, Chrome and Safari are much better.

McDuff Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I too cannot upload my photos, (But that's probably just my lack of computer skills. Whenever I try, it just says I have run out of space.) JW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
