I just spent the last hour in the Test section trying to re-learn how to post pictures. what seems to work is copying the URL into a post from my photobucket account.
The problem is when I click on the photo to look at it full size, it goes directly to my photobucket account. I don’t want that. I just want the picture to be imbedded in the post only.
How do I do that? [*-)]
Use the direct link on photobucket
Back on fsm click on reply not quick reply
Icon that looks like a little mountain is image icon
Paste link hit confirm. Done
Hope this helps
Or copy at PB, and hit the righthand icon in the box with the scissors at the bottom left here. Just be sure to hit enter to get a fresh line after putting in text, or putting up a pic before you post anotherpic.
Is this it?
That still takes me to your bucket. Try putting each build in a separate album. Then I think it will only put up that pic. At the top left of each pic in PB, you have like 4 options if you hit the bar icon. Hit share, then the copy line (Bottom one on the share window that will open).
You can also go into PB’s settings and make the albums or bucket private, that will keep the whole thing from opening up.
To get this, I had to copy the entire URL link from PB, post it here; then remove the URL portion of the link.
But it makes the image so small you can’t really see anything, yet it’s a 4 Mb file. [:'(]
I use PB when posting images. You should have a choice and I use the one specifically for forums/email (the bottom link on right hand side). Simply, click ONCE, go to forums, click once again to paste it in thread subject.
When you submit your thread response, you will see it. It doesn’t bring it up as a rather large image, but just perfect size for forums. Hope this helps.
BS214 - I’m only an Aeronautical Engineer [:S] Would you mind posting a couple of images from PB showing exactly what you are clicking on?
Thanks!
Go to library in your PB account.
Pick an image you want to post.
On right hand side of page, under SHARE THIS PHOTO list.
Click ONCE on last line (IMG) You will see a yellow highlight for a couple seconds in that line stating “Copied”
Go to forum. Click it in your response thread.
This is a sample of how big the image will be:

The link is still going to Photobucket [:@]
So to be clear. What I want is for the picture to imbed in the thread without linking to the photobucket web page. Is this not possible? Maybe I’m just not getting it!
Hello!
I know what you mean - you just don’t want to get the newest PB - BS, right?
I’m glad to say that I’m not a Photobucket user, so don’t know if it’s possible nowadays - PB does that on purpose, because it does want you to see that very BS, because that’s how they get their money. Making the service as good as unusable by the way, that’s sad.
Here’s a link to a SBS that I did some time ago - maybe that will help you any:

Hope to see more pictures on the forums - good luck and have a nice day

Pawel - that’s awesome!
The SBS is just what I was looking for. It looks like I’m not going to be able to gt around people going to my PB page.
Hello!
Glad I could help you a little - maybe you can find other picture hosting service that’s useful for a change? Looking forward to seeing your pictures and have a nice day
