If you are a sponsor then all you need do is select the 'manage attachments' button from way down the page you are entering your message on, and then browse to the file you wanna use on your computer.. click on upload and then close window and your done !

If you aint a sponsor you will need a little web space to upload your image to.
Most pop's ( internet providers ) give a couple of meg minimum of web space which is plenty for dozens of pictures..

Upload the image to your webspace, click on the tab above the box you are typing in that is yellow and looks like a couple of mountains on an envelope and then enter the URL ( web address ) of where the picture is stored..

Here is an example for you..
finish2.jpg




Now the actual text entry for that picture is:

http://www.jaws-motorcycles.co.uk/odds/finish2.jpg

But to get the picture to come up there is a
 in it to close the text. ( dont worry, all of that is done for you when you click on that there button ! )

upload pictures that have been copied & pasted, still ones are fine, but the ones that have some movement ie animations just up load but don't move. Any suggestions? They are pulled from my files to upload. How do you get then to up load with out being an active attachment when posted on the site? d34l pheeeeeeeeew.

You need to store them on line somewhere and link to them

Come on you Hatters
Is there a reason why any picture uploaded to the 'for sale' section is locked in our 'user CP' attachments area, as in there's no delete option like there is for all other pictures? :dunno:

You could always install dropbox and then post the public URL of any images.

Yes, but if you are not a sponsor you would have to store them on line somewhere first such as photobucket or similar and link from that as in the second part of the instructions above
You could even post them to face book and do it that way..

Of course if you are a site sponsor it is really easy
Just click on the 'Manage Attachments' button found below the text box you use to make a post, select the picture you want to upload, and its a done job @tu*


Here is a picture I have on my facebook pages:

547205_10151634544442825_1547218743_n.jpg


I simply right clicked the picture, selected 'copy image URL' from the options and then came back on here, clicked on the wee picture above the text box that looks like a post card with a picture of a mountain on it, then right clicked in the box that came up and selected paste ..

There are easier options with just key presses but try to get the hang of the recommended ( by Microsoft :eek: ) way first.. Once that is mastered come on back for lesson two, the short cut keys ! @tu*
