Posting Pictures

**Mullet** · 08-15-2012, 01:48 AM

Hi,

I have a question about my trailer that I would like to post on the forum but it really needs the photos to show what I am talking about. Is there anyway for me to post photos directly from my computer (macbook) to the forum without using photobucket or similar?

Cheers

Nope.

The photos need to be somewhere we can all access them. That means either an external 3rd party (photobucket, Facebook etc), or become a sponsor of the site and upload here (if you've gone over quota)

Oh, welcome. I hope you find this place as useful as I have.

Thanks for the quick reply but what do you mean by "gone over quota"

Cheers

You can post some photos with a standard user account, however you'll be limited in size as there is a small quota

I've just read your post again and it sounds like you're asking a different question to the one I answered

What exactly is stopping you from posting pics?

There is a little icon in the toolbar above the reply box, 4th in from the right. It looks like a picture. Click on it and the browse your photo's and open to add on. Then upload.

You may need to reduce the size of the file depending on the quality. Higher megapixels= more memory size. I use a free software called Jing. It basically captures an image of your photo at less resolution and creatse a smaller file size.

Hi guys,

I was trying to upload an image from my computer because I don't have photobucket but it just wouldn't come up in the post and there was an exclamation mark in a red circle next to the file name. I will try reducing the file size and see how that goes.

Cheers
