I am new here. Just joined today.

But i am guessing the IMG code..

Just put the image between the IMG code.

you put the pic you want on a site. e.g. www.website.com (not a site. just for exaple purposes.)

then put ur pic on the site, e.g mypic.jpg

and to put this on a post use the image code.

[IMG]http://www.website.com/mypic.jpg[/IMG]

but if you click the img code you just have to type in the location

kinda got it, thanks livy, xxx

what we are saying is you need a website address to put the pic on and then hit the IMG tab here and put that website's address in and make sure in ends in ".gif" :beerchug:

yes kind of its an xray/digital pic, i'm glad you see it somebody else was telling me they can't see them and i remembered you said something, so they are there ha, good you see the super sign too?? i also posted pics of my pets in the lounge and they were saying they don't see it, but if you see it they should too, some times i can't see other people's either until i refresh the page a couple of times.

Lilmiss,
When you hit IMG and the little screen shows up you'll see a highlighted "HTTP//" is already there. DELETE IT. The addy you have copied from your webhost already has this in it. If you dont remove one of them then your address will begin: http//http//, thereby causing the server to become very confused and you will suffer the shame of the dreaded "little red x" with an empty box.

Also:
Some webhosts (like mine-Picstore) don't include the file extension at the end of the address. So you have to add it manually. If the address you have copied doesn't end in an ext. like.jpeg or .gif do this: at the end of the address type in "& ext=.jpeg" or "&ext=.gif" (without quotes). Use the 'preview post' button to see if you got it right.
