How do you add a pic rather than a link ?

[scott_peters]

I know there was a thread about this somewhere but cant find it anywhere, I can see the picture frame button but when i put a link in from facebook it comes up with a red cross ?

Help

You mean to add a picture to a thread?

Just click the "Upload a file" button, select your picture, and insert it however you want, or if you dont insert it, it will be provided at the bottom of your post automatically.

usually safest to upload to photobucket which will automatically generate an image [ IMG ]

Yeah when i copied the link from my photobucket is shows that red cross as above ?

 

[Dusty]

are you copying the correct link? should start and finish with tags like this [ IMG ] [ /IMG ]

Is what your image code from photo bucket should look like, my apologies.

With the spaces I added removed, it shows as an embedded picture.

Is there a file size limit? I can get to the 100% uploaded part but it won't take me to the thumbnail/full size bit...
