Could someone help me with posting pics on the site.I have tried a few times and i keep getting invalid file.i have my pics loaded at Photobucket. Thank you in advance.
 
I've always just right clicked in photobucket "copy" then pasted to my thread I was in. It's never let me down yet
 
When looking at the pic in photobucket, click on the field that says "IMG Code." Photobucket will copy the URL for you. Just paste that into your text when writing your post here, and the photo should appear after you submit the post.

When you paste the text here, it'll look something like this (IMG)http://www.photobucket.com/blankblankblankblank/blank.jpg(/IMG) but with square brackets instead of parentheses.

Yep, you need the full url of the picture click on the picture icon a enter the full address http://domain.com/images/picture.jpg ...
 
I know when i tried that one it only showed up partial.I can copy in photobucket and click on insert image then paste it there, i still get an invalid file.Need help step by step.I know it must be simple.
 
Click on the image you want in photobucket u want and then copy and paste the entire address. This is how I do it, and it works for me.
 
Log in to your photobucket account. Scroll over the image you want to upload, and you should have a little box appear that gives you "email & IM," "Direct link," "HTML Code," and "IMG code." You need to clcik on the text in the IMG code box and then it should automatically copy it. If not, ensure that all of it is hilighted and copy the text. Then paste the text into the text box on R2R. (Don't click the image icon above the text box) That's all there is to it!

If you've copied the whole address, you should see something like this (with square brackets instead of parentheses):
(IMG)http//****photobucket.com/****/(name_of_picture).jpg(/IMG)
If not, make sure you see the following when you copy the URL.

When you click where it says IMG Code, it should say "Copied".

Then paste into the place where you enter text. Do NOT click the "Insert Image" icon.

To really make it clear, this is what this message looks like just before I press the "Submit Reply" button.

If any of the mods see this- could we sticky Cparka's post somewhere? I've already sent a few local reefers this thread to give them guidance on posting photo's, not sure if a similar write-up is somewhere else but didn't see it stickied here in the photo forum.
