I can not seem to get a photo of my cruiser in a message. I am not totally computer literate, obviously! HELP!! [xx(]

KRYS33,

Do you have your photos already on the web somewhere? It has to be someplace other than your home computer. Then you hit the "pic" button and place your photo URL between the brackets.

This info from FAQ should be of help:

"Before you can create a post containing a picture you need to have an account somewhere on the web where your pictures will reside. There are many free photo sites available on the web. Some of these are www.fototime.com or www.cardomain.com. I find that this is the best as you do not have to pay.

1. Go to one of the free photo sites and start yourself a FREE account. This is where you will be storing the pictures that you want people to see on your forum posts. Think of it is as a public photo album.

2. Once you have your free account you then need to create an album(s) where you will store your pictures. The procedures are very easy on each of the sites listed above.

3. Once you have an album you will then need to upload your pictures from your computer to your photo album. The pictures MUST already be on your computer to do this. Uploading pictures from your computer is generally done with the "Add a Picture" link.

4. Here is the information that you will need to know to get your picture to show properly. In your photo Album just click on the thumbnail picture that you want to show on the forum. Your picture will load up and show on your screen larger than the thumbnail picture. Now you MUST do this part. Click on the newly loaded picture and it will once again load up in another window although this time there will be no text on the screen, only the picture. Here's the important part - At the URL section highlight the entire URL, right mouse click on it and click on copy.

5. Now you can go to the PTCruiserLinks Forum, type in your message and then type [IMG]on a separate line, now right mouse click and click on "Paste" and the picture's URL will be put AFTER the [IMG]. Now at the END of the URL type [/IMG].

(you will know if you have a correct link if it ends in .jpg or.gif, these are the only 2 picture formats that can be used on the forums) Now post your message and the picture will show.

If you want to include a picture into your signature click on the "Profile" section on the PTCruiserLinks Forum, enter your username and password and then in the Signature section do exactly the same procedures that you would use to add a picture into a post. You can also use a picture from someone else's site if you know the exact URL, to find this RIGHT CLICK ON IT. Pictures can be in either a .jpg or a .gif format."
