 Topic: adding photos to articles Posted: 02 Apr 2008 at 7:29pm |
|
Is it possible for a member to add photographs to the articles that they submit? If it is possible, how do you do it?

you cannot upload your own picture from your computer at the moment.
you can find another server where it can be uploaded (like photobucket.com) where you will get the code (address) of that picture. Or find suitable picture on Google's pictures and copy its address (http://...) Then you can use Forum Codes for pictures. You can find Forum Codes on this site under the gap you are writing the new post/message.

That sounds too complicated. I tried to post some photos here but I'm at sea, lost, and don't understand how to, what to or whatever.

Thanks for the advice about Forum Codes and where to find them. I used them and was able to have photos included with the article.

maybe you can ask our vutje to upload your pictures somewhere and give you the http address.

It is actually not that difficult. The first step is to post your photos to a picture sharing web site. Then you insert the forum code for an image into your article. In the Forum Codes section, the code for images is the one that begins with [IMG].
The letters between the [IMG} would be the web address of your photos.
