Totally frustrated - need specific help on how to post pics

  • I have downloaded photos to Photobucket. I wrote my post and clicked the Manage Attachments button because I don't see this "Insert Image" button that was mentioned in another post.

    I put in the URL of the picture location on Photobucket, and I either get "invalid file or "file too big." What am I doing wrong??? I'm ready to give up and the world will never see my before-and-after photos

    Can someone please give me specific, step by step instructions on how to post a photo from Photobucket? How do I find this "insert image" button when I post a new thread? Or am I supposed to go to Manage Attachments (which doesn't work for me)? Am I copying the wrong link in Photobucket, which gives the option of copying a Direct, Email, image or HTML link - none of which I could get this forum to accept?

    If all else fails, can I post the url to the Photobucket pictures into the body of my message? If so, which one (direct, email image, or Html URL)?

    Thanks.
  • I just post the link from photobucket, the last IMG link. It should look something like [IMG ]http://photobucket.com/albums/name/number/etc[/IMG]
  • See if this helps. I couldn't figure it out till this post with pics.

  • Hehe, that was me! I'll post the pic again for you:

  • Then you just paste that image code right into the body of your text. No need to hit the insert image button.
  • Ok, I'm gonna give it another try...
  • I did it! I am so proud of myself for posting pics in the mini-goal photo album...thank you
