Photobucket dilemna
« on: November 08, 2011, 07:50:04 AM »
Since Village Photos has gone tits up I've been forced to sign up to Photobucket. All went well downloading my first batch of photos but now that I want to upload a photo to the forum, I can't get my head around what to do ???. I'm not the most techno of punters so what am I missing?

Hi Firko,

Go to your image, hold the cursor over the image and it will give you 4 options, pick the bottom one and copy the image link, the paste it under your text on the forum and like magic photo cometh

Once you saved your pics,just run the mouse pointer over the pic and the image options come down.
Run the pointer over the (img code) and left click once,then just right click and paste on the page you are replying in ozvmx.

As marc just said ;D

Thanks Marc and Mario...sorted! ( http://ozvmx.com/community/index.php?topic=21519.msg213459;topicseen#msg213459
It was pretty simple actually, just a bit different to the Village way of doing it. I can now contribute with pretty pics but it's such a damn pity I've lost all of the stuff stored on Village. That unfortunately is life in these troubled times :D.

i think youll like Photo bucket, its easy to load and you can do multiple files uploading including Video in one place, and it gives you a stack of pre made links you can use to cut and post to suit your application. 2 thumbs up i reckon.
