Displaying Photos in your topic |
|
We have now
setup the Forum up to allow users to post photo's in topics. Please note
that these images must be Mini related. To reduce the amount of space on
the server that the Forum uses, at present the only pictures that can be
viewed on the Forum are the users Avatars. The only way to allow others
see photos is to provide a link to those pictures where they are hosted.
To do this, (this is one way, not the only way), you need to set up an
account with an Image Hosting Service.
We use
http://www.photobucket.com, it's free to join. When you
set up your account, log into it and on the main page there is an option
"Choose an Image". Use the Browse button to locate the photo on your PC.
Select the photo image that you want to share. Double click on the image
and you will be brought back to your photobucket page, here you can add
a title to your picture if you wish. Next click on the "Upload" button,
it takes a few seconds, depending on your connection speed, but you will
eventually get an "Images Uploaded" banner. Scroll down and you will see
your image. Above the image are some options including an edit option
which you can use to change the size of your image, handy for resizing
an image to use as your Avatar. Beneath the image there are 3 boxes, URL
Link, HTML Tag and Image Code. Left click your mouse button anywhere in
the URL Link box, this will highlight all the text in the box, then
right click and copy this address text and paste it in the body of your
forum post. |

How to post the photo in your topic
Option 1
1/ You’ll need to know the location and name of your photo (URL Link).
2/ If you're using a hosting website, you should be given a link, if not
right link over the image and select properties. There is a part called
"Address". High light the address beside this and copy it by pressing
and holding "CTRL" then press "INSTERT"
3/ Create your post, starting on a new line enter "[img]htpp://www,photohosting,com/joeblack/minicopper.jpg[//img]"
4/ Make sure the option "Disable BBCode in this
post" is unclicked
5/ Preview your post to see if the linked worked, if not repeat steps 2
and 3
Option 2
When you have logged on to your account on
http://www.photobucket.com and found the picture you want
to post on the forum, here is what you do,
Those
using the Forum user's do so at their own risk. |

Browsing help |
|
|
|
|
| I have
tested this site in "Internet Explorer" and "Mozilla Firefox" web
browsers. When using the "Gallery" or the "Video" section's of the site,
please remember the size and quality have been restricted to a poor
format. If you are looking for a better format, contact the Webmaster
with your inquiry. If you come across a problem or mistake or even have
a comment. Browsing hints: If your
opening a link on this website, press the "CTRL" button and then click
the link. This will open the link in a new tab and not a new window.
This works with the latest "Internet Browser" and "Firefox" web
browser's.
Please contact me at
webmaster@irishminis.ie. I will then
look into the problem and so on. |
