    Hosting the Picture

    1) Go to an image-hosting site (for example, photobucket or tinypic- photobucket requires making an account). Upload your picture. To do this, click the button that says "Browse" and choose your photo from there. When you have selected your photo and clicked "OK", click the UPLOAD button.

    2) Wait until it is completely loaded and shows you a bunch of different codes (click on the photobucket pic and the link codes are on the right side). We're going to use the URL that's called IMG (or Image) code. Highlight the entire code, right click, and click "copy".

    Placing the Picture on MFP

    1) Get onto your favorite board or wherever you would like to post the picture, and start your message. Now, right click inside this typing/text box, and click "Paste", The code that you coped earlier should show up. You may notice that the code looks something like this: (without the spaces)

    [ IMG ] http://i48.tinypic.com/qqebzq.jpg [ /IMG ] OR album[/URL]

    Well, that's all fine and dandy, except that we can't have those capital letters in there.

    2) Take the code that you have down, and change the capital IMG to lowercase img (on both ends of the code), so that it looks something like this: (without the spaces) -

    Copied from another topic by member Manda_bubbles:


    THIS IS HOW I DID IT...STEP BY STEP. SUPER EASY!
    RESIZING:
    I opened my picture in paint.
    click on resize. it will show 2 boxes that say 100...cut those down to 50 and 50 or you can choose 40 and 40.
    Save your picture after you resize.

    Go to tinypic.com
    upload your picture from your computer by using the browse button.
    File type is IMAGE
    On the resize tab , choose MESSAGE BOARD (640X480)
    Click on upload now.
    a pop up comes on and you type in the message it displays..then your results come out.
    Choose the second line for message boards and forums...Copy and paste
    It has IMG in capital letters....make those lower case on both sides...there are 2.
    Once you do that, when you submit your post, your picture will display.



    Here is another way to do it:
