Well, I couldn't sleep. And I know figuring out how to upload pictures isn't always the easiest. I'm a visual person, so I thought I would put this together and hopefully it will help someone out. (Plus I love seeing all the before & afters on MFP, so if it can help get more of those yay! )
The reason I posted in the Success area, is because I figured this is where most people are going to need help posting pictures.
Sorry for having to see one of my wedding pictures over and over again. :laugh:
This is for using http://photobucket.com/.
You do have to make an account. But its free, and then you'll have a place store all your awesome pictures.
They are also pretty good about not sending you any junk to your email. I've only gotten one thing from them in like 3 years.

If you click the "more options", this page will come up. Sorry if its hard to read. But you'll want to make the largest number to 550, this seems to a good size. It will still be big, but your picture won't get clipped off. (For example: This image was resized from 1024x680 to 550x360)

So, the reason I wanted to point out this whole %20 thing is because it can really irritate someone. lol When you have a picture or an album with a space in it, sometimes when you copy over the link, it will have a %20 where the space should be. If you don't fix this, your picture won't work!

Notice...no %20 in the link I have written in red.

Hope that helps with adding a picture to a TOPIC.
I also made one for adding pictures to a blog post.

The %20 problem is back! Only this time, you want to make sure you leave the link as is. Do not take out the %20 or the picture will not show up in your blog.

And LAST BUT NOT LEAST....HOW TO DO A TEST RUN BEFORE POSTING TO A TOPIC! :bigsmile:
Send yourself a message! Go to MY HOME > MAIL > Compose Message
And send yourself a message with the picture code in it (the [ img ] *link* [ /img ] code)
If it shows up in your message correctly, then it will show up on your topic post correctly.
Hope this helps. :flowerforyou:0 -
