Adding photos to reports.

[basscatcher]

Thanksfor asking this and in order to help I will also add this as a post on all forums.

Photos can be added to any post or report but first of all you will need a photobucket account. Log on to photobucket.com/ and sign up for a free account. I have used photbucket for a long while and it is free and causes absolutley no problems to your system.

Photobucket allows you to create URL links and hosts your photos for internet posting. When you have added the photo to your photobucket account you can then copy the URL and paste it into the post.

On the "create post" section or "reply" on this site you will see "add tags" and a button 2nd row 4th from left that when clicked creates a set of double brackets containing img and /img command. Simply paste the photo url between this.

Then the report can be supported by a nice colour photo like:

Ta for that Gilby. Not webby enough to have put the pictures on before but that photbucket looks easy enough even for an old boot like me. Watch this space.

Gilbo,
I have managed it, using photobucket, great site. Have put a pic in the NW section, chicken as bait, but the image is huge. I deleted it, resized in PB, but it's still massive. Any more tips ?
I could only see the Tags buttons when modifying a post rather than replying.

Resizing in Photobucket should work and each time you do it, it reduces in size.

One thing you must do is refresh the post as it will always show the last with the large picture.

Thanks. Sussed it now, except I didn't re-fresh, when I did, the image was like a postage stamp, but got there in the end.
