Hi everyone..I Hope your Monday was fabulous!! I REALLY want to start dedicating more time to my blog posts and would LOVE to be including daily photos of my food....photos my before/after of myself....etc....I think photos ALWAYS tell a complete story.. :)
Does anyone know if I can do this?
If so...how do I upload photos to message boards posts?
And how can I upload photos to my blog posts?
Thanks again!!!!

    bump, I don't think you can add photos to blog posts, would be a great feature to have though!

    Yes I've seen other people post photos to their blogs.
    It's the same way you post them here in the forums.
    you need to upload your photos to a photo hosting site
    like photobucket or image shack and use the IMG code.
    although you will have to change IMG to img--for some reason it doesn't work
    when IMG is in caps.

    You'll need to upload them on a remote host site such as Photobucket. From there you will copy the code that starts with "<href=". Then, inside your blog start a new post, and click the little HTML button in the upper right. A pop-up screen should appear. You'll post your code there, and add text between the photos. Then when you are done close the pop-up. You can then edit your post while viewing your pics.

    I have photobucket and have tried every single code, but posting in blogs doesn't work. My album is even on private! I use the [img][/img] codes and it still doesn't work. I would like to know the answer to this as well

    The <href= code is the one that works in the blog. I don't think the IMG code will work there.

    You can but it requires a little work. Search for it previous posts, there is a really good walkthrough.

    Are you clicking the little "HTML" button at the upper right corner once you start a new post?

    In your blog you'd use <img> tag instead of [ img ] tag.
