You also need a place that is internet accessable to put the picture. Roadrunner usually gives each user some space for a personal web site. Place your picture there and then use the [IMG] code above

Jed,

I finds lots of posts use: [url=http://www.photobucket.com/:0158e]http://www.photobucket.com/[/url:0158e]

The site also makes it easier to “copy/paste” the right adresses once you dump the images over there.

p.s.: Most I*net service providers GIVE 5-10 megs of free web space to subscribers … As an example, … the little personal page I made is housed on a free part of the server I run off of.

Allan,
There is a very good thread sometime this year. In it one of the folks went through it all step by step and very understandable…check it out…if you don’t figure it out…post and I’ll see if I can find it…gotta go now…incidently I think photobucket works well…

Duck, (and Allan):

The thread is probably the one I linked:

Allan,
if you attempt to “edit” my post, you can see all the codes. the brackets signify the code, the words between the brackets are either the URL
(for images) or the link. watch

[url=http://www.photobucket.com:39f3c]this is where my pics are stored[/url:39f3c]<<this is a link that doesnt show the actual URL

and typing [url=http://makes:39f3c]http://makes[/url:39f3c] the words that follow a link automatically, as long as there are no spaces.
