Hi Mart ....

to use photobucket ..(i assume you have the pics on your pc)
you need to upload them to the site ...by pressing the "choose files" button

this forum will only let you post pics if they are within the max size ....to resize them as you upload them
press the "more options" link ...and you'll get this

when you've uploaded ....then choose the "IMG code" (usually the bottom link on each pic) copy it .......then paste it into your post



hope this is helpful

Here's a little guide I did for the Probe club I help run...



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


How do i post a picture / Photo, on my thread

1. Sign up to Photobucket at http://www.photobucket.com

2. Once you've signed then you can begin to upload pictures to photobucket



Click the 'Browse' tab and locate the picture on your computer you wish to upload.

3. Once you've uploaded the picture then the 'thumb nails' will appear in your photobucket folder



4. Now you can re-size the uploaded picture



Click the 'edit' tab



Click the 're-size' tab and a drop down menu will appear.

If you want to post a picture here on a thread then the 'Message Board' option will re-size the picture to a suitable size for most forums.

The picture will now be automatically re-sized and ready for posting.


To post the picture on the thread then you'll need to copy the IMG tag from under the 'Thumb nail' preview



Simply click on the IMG tag and the img code will automatically be copied

Then you'll need to paste the IMG tag into your post.


That's it


To add a sig pic is the same as above but you'll need to paste the IMG tag into your profile





Please remember that sig pics have size limit and any picture should be re-sized so it falls within the limits.


Hope that helps
