How do I post a picture?

[Chadd 916]

If the picture you want to include in your post is already hosted somewhere on the internet, it's very easy to include the picture in the post. Just click on the button of the picture (underneath and to the left of the smiley button) just above the blank space for your post. A window will then pop up asking for the location of the picture. Just pop the address of the picture into the box and click "ok".

If the picture you want to share is located on your computer, you will need to find somewhere to host it for you. Places like Photobucket are free and very easy to use. Once you have it uploaded, simply follow the directions above.

When I do this for instance I have this web addres: http://www.freeimagehosting.net/image.php?c5ccba0b61.jpg as the location of a hosted image....

I click the item where when I hover over it, it says: Insert Image I copy the above address in and then I get an error message saying : Sorry, dynamic pages in the tags are not allowed

[Chadd 916]

Use another host if you have to have the picture in the post, the board software has issues with the way they insert advertising into the pictures.Otherwise, just post the link.

What does "Sorry, dynamic pages in the tags are not allowed"

I got this error when I tried to post a video I have hosted on Photobucket

Only links to videos can be posted, they can not be embedded into a post.

It means "no video."

Dynamic images are those in which the URL doesn't change but the picture does (eg. what you see on the MSH Photo Gallery)

We only support static URLs.

[jds 20]

So I should just post the link to my photobucket site where the video lives?

If the picture you want to include in your post is already hosted somewhere on the internet, it's very easy to include the picture in the post. Just click on the button of the sun on a hill (next to the smiley button) just above the blank space for your post. A window will then pop up asking for the location of the picture. Just pop the address of the picture into the box and click "ok".

Hey Chadd, I tried this but the image next to the smiley face is not a sun on a hill, I don't know what it is but its for insert a link. When I inserted the link to my pic on photobucket and posted it did not work. Do I need to click on insert image? Or am I completely missing something. Thanks

Sorry, there were a lot of little things changed after the last update and we haven't been able to update all of these topics. I apologize for that.

The new "insert image" icon is two to the right of the smiley face. From left to right you will get Emoticons, insert link, insert picture, insert email address, insert quotation, insert code snippet and insert media.

I edited your post with the pic. If you click on "edit" for that post you will be able to see how the tags work.

Ok thanks I will give it a try right now in this post.

[Chadd 916]

looks like you have a part of an extra IMG tag at the end.

[greenstripetowel 1]

[Chadd 916]

don't just keep adding tags, look to see where the problem is

All I'm doing is copying address of pic and pasting it in image URL

[bostonjuniorblackhawks 1]

Your making this way too complicated for yourself.............either use photbucket which gives you img code to copy and paste or make sure your photo ends in .jpg and put the tags around the photo

Here is what I am doing: 1) opening my pic on photobucket.

2) Right click and copy the image's address

3) Come back to MSH, click on "insert image"-a box comes up asking for URL

4) Paste it in the box

5) Post it

[greenstripetowel 1]

ignore the image box.

all you had to do was click where it says img code and it will automatically copy it for you

I did it your way as well and it worked the first time. I think for it to work this way it has to be the direct link code
