posting pics

how do you post pics in the middle of the text?

 

[Corpus Callosum]

upload the image to a location, whether your reef central gallery or an outside website, then use the following tags:

[.IMG] http:// image url here. jpg [./IMG]

Except remove those dots I put inside both ends of the img tag.

Some good sites are photobucket and www.imageshack.us they will put the tags right on it for you.

I still dont understand how to do it I am not very computer savy. How exactly does it work? do I post the pictures on the other website then transfer them here? when I try to download pictures to reef central it says they are too big.

yea they need to big hosted somewhere else like photobucket

open a photobucket account. upload the pictures there. then under each picture will be 3 links. just click on the one that says "image" and it will copy it for you. then paste that text into your post were you want the image to show up.

Sign up (free) with www.photobucket.com
Use their option to upload photos from your computer to your album on www.photobucket.com

Once you do, you will see your photos lower on that page. Go to the one you want to include in a post here and left-click on the "IMG Code" line under the photo. There will be a brief message that says, "Copied"

Just use paste (Ctrl-V) to paste that text into your post as you type. It will show a picture when you preview or submit your post.
