Ok, I'm having trouble posting pics, going to try it again.

Ok for some reason I cant post pics at all. Not even from photobucket. I'm doing everything right that I know of. I keep getting a box with a red "X"??

You are trying to link to an image page instead of the image and you had an extra http in there. Here is the page http://s41.photobucket.com/albums/e2...t=truck001.jpg

Look at the bottom right of your photobucket page. There is a link that says IMG Code - Forums & Bulletin Boards

Just copy that address and paste it in your message. It already puts the img tags on it.

Here is your picture:

Nice truck. Don't forget to close your hood before driving.

You have two extra sets of img tags in that one plus an extra http://. Just copy from your photobucket page and paste in your message. Do not add anything. Do not use the

. Just right-click copy and right-click paste right into the body of the message (where you type).

I put some spaces in what you tried to post last so you could see where the errors are.

I see the decal now.

ok, that didn't work, let me try again

UofKboy · #8 01-24-2009, 08:02 PM

think I got it, one more time

BlueFlareside · #9 01-24-2009, 08:04 PM

You got it. Now just figure out how to make your images smaller. That's why I use the Gallery feature here. The pictures are resized by the site.

OK, I got some more questions. Can I upload pics from my album? Also, when I copy something and paste it, its wanting to paste previous pics i've copied. When I tried to paste muliple pics it pasted the same pic. As you can tell I'm a expert at this stuff.

You have to upload the pictures from your computer to your album here. I checked and you already have them uploaded here http://www.f150online.com/forums/mem...-my-truck.html

Just click on a picture in your album and then copy the address under the picture after where it says BB Code.

Copy and paste works for just one address or one thing. You copy an address then you paste it in your message. Then you go back, copy the next address and paste it, and so on.

Here is that same picture hosted here

That is a link to the picture without the img tags. See my post above. There is a line with what you need to copy under each image. Basically, the

icon adds the img tags at the beginning and end of each address. You can use it but should not need to.

LOL, I think I got it now. Thanks for your help.
