Tried all of the methods I know, but can't get any new/old pics to post. Any ideas?

Go to Photobucket.com and upload your pictures. Then click on one of the hyperlinks under the picture(s) that states copy image. Now, go back to this site and simply have your cursor in the area such as this and click paste. That'll do it.

Works best if you copy and paste the photobucket image (IMG) code, the pic will appear directly in the post like this......

And still be viewable without being logged in :rolleyes:.....

Good luck.

Thanks y'all. Here's a test:

EDIT:

Whoa! I guess it worked. Maybe too well. LOL. Mods let me know if/how to resize.

You resize at photobucket.....once you have double clicked on the thumbnail in your album and the pic appears on its own place the cursor over the pic and a menu will appear at the top which includes "resize"..... 640 by 480 should be about right, if not keep reducing one level at a time until it looks okay.....you might have noticed i already did mine which was 400 by 400.....this is a tad small imo.

Btw, you need to copy the IMG code from the resized pic and post it here.....

The image section of the iboats server is down, and has been since the 6th. Look at the yellow note bar just above your original post.
Right now, the only way to post pictures is from sites outside of iboats. Like photobucket.
