PICTURE STORAGE

[royclark]

I am not brilliant at computing so would like to know. Where is the best place to store my pictures for use on AudiWorld? At the moment I am storing them in my private album section, but there is a limit to how many I can store there. If I want to answer a question with text & pictures, do I have to first past the text, then import pictures & add them one at a time? Any help would be appreciated. Thank's

I use photobucket to store my pictures. It will have a link for each of your photos to paste into the forum.

Here are some basic instructions on using the free Photobucket service:

1) Obviously the first step is to sign up to http://www.photobucket.com ;
2) Assuming you already have a .jpg file located on your computer that you want to upload;
3) Then, click on the GREEN upload button;
4) The next screen has by default ‘Upload from: My computer’ so now click on ‘Select photos and videos’;
5) Now a screen will open for you to locate the folder and pics you want to upload. Once you have found the pics you want, either double-click on the pic or simply click on ‘Open’;
5(i) If you want to select several pics within the same folder that are not together (not side by side), then hold down the control key and left-click on each pic you want to copy and then simply click on ‘Open’;
5(ii) If you want to select several pics within the same folder that are side by side, then hold down the ‘Shift’ key and left-click on the first pic you want to copy and then click on the last pic in the series you want to copy. All the pics between should be selected and now just click on ‘Open’;
6) The system will automatically upload your pic and you can see its progress and when finished it will say ‘Upload complete’;
7) Now, if you want, you can add a Title and Type in a Description for your pic. Then click on ‘Save and continue to my album’;
8) You will see the pic(s) you have uploaded into your album. If you run your mouse pointer over the picture a drop-down menu appears;
9) The very last line in this drop-down menu has a caption IMG Code and to the right of this the actual IMG Code you want. Move your mouse pointer down and over the long IMG Code and using your left mouse button, click on it. You will briefly see the word 'Copied’ flash. This means the IMG Code has now been copied;
10) Now go to the thread/post you want to insert the pic and simply right-click and select paste. Now you can add text before and/or after the link.

Have fun!

Cheers!
