+Rygel Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 How do I upload a picture in these new forums. Not an avatar. I want to upload a logo design to a thread. I really don't want to have to hotlink to it. Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine. Quote Link to comment
+welch Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Use the ubb image code tags. Theres a quick buton towards the top of the "post a reply" window. If you want to write it out yourself you would use IMG Pics address /IMG >>> remember to use [ ] brakets So, If want to post say, this http://www.50states.com/no/0iaf.gif image i would use (IMG)http://www.50states.com/no/0iaf.gif(/IMG) and it would look like: Quote Link to comment
+Rygel Posted April 7, 2003 Author Share Posted April 7, 2003 Doesn't that imply that the image is located on the web somewhere? I want to upload an image from my hard drive. Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine. Quote Link to comment
+welch Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Yea it does. You can get around this by uploading it to your profile (like your avatar and whatever other pics you have.) and then linking to it. Quote Link to comment
+Mopar Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 The image has to already be on the internet somewhere. Some places like geocities and angelfire won't allow external linking, btw. Then just use the "image" button, or use the UBB IMG tag like so: Tae-Kwon-Leap is not a path to a door, but a road leading forever towards the horizon. Quote Link to comment
+Rygel Posted April 7, 2003 Author Share Posted April 7, 2003 OK, forget that. I guess I won't post it. Thanks anyway. Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine. Quote Link to comment
+RobAGD Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 As it currently stands there isnt a way to load it to the sight. Pics can add up quick and eat a bit of space. It very well could be a decision to stop allowing attached files in the forums. Just to give you an idea on a forum I help run rather busy forum and we see something 800+ megs a week in attachments being viewed. Depending on yor hosting that adds up -Robert Quote Link to comment
