When you Save as a picture to a folder, how do you copy, or get it to appear, say, in a post?


I can do desktop wallpapers, but I cannot get a pic I saved to appear. Do I rename it in the folder its in, or what?
I'd hate to save alot of pics and not be able to post them.

- Let's say that you have a lot of pictures in your "My Pictures" folder, which is usually inside of your "My Documents folder.

If you want to post a pic in a message here in the forum-

1) To upload the pic to the message that you are posting.

a) - Inside of the message that you are posting, look for the UploadPic
option, which is right below the "URL" button.

b) The "Upload Picture Dialog box" will then appear.

c) Click on the "Choose" button that is located to the right of the "Picture file:" field

d) You will then see a Windows "Open" dialog box appear

e) Click on the My Documents folder in the left toolbar of the Open Dialog box

f) Double-click on the "My Pictures" folder that is in the list of files and folders in the "My Documents" folder that you just selected.

g) Click on the picture file that you wish to post-
in this example, I used "bill-gates-mugshot.jpg"

h) Click on the "Send" button in the "Upload Picture Dialog box"

i) You will then see a "Preview" of your picture in the "Upload Picture Dialog box" - scroll down, and click on the Standardlink next to "Insert Picture"

Voila!

@miditek, I hate to be a pain in the ass, but there is no Upload Picture Option anywhere below the URL button! It just says, "Close Tags".
So what do I do now?
This is really something. The reason I got a computer to start with was because I was rather limited with what I could do on a Webtv. I saw all these people making funny pics and all being able to post them on the messageboards. Well, I found a website that can, like, write messages on pics, then you save them. Simple. Now, I cannot get the pic out of the file onto the post! LOL
Good thing I did not create a slew of them.

One solution: get a photobucket account.




Or, imageshack.

OOPS! I was in a hurry. Oh, well, mistakes are meant for learning. LOL!


Maybe I should've just said "doomed" instead. I keep forgetting that everybody in this forum has a Ph.d!

Yes, getting my PhD in spelin' was the best decision I made in my life. :poke:

I'm just having fun, A. I mean, since I have discovered the delights of an actual computer I've become a monster!







Now, I gotta learn how to create banners.

I still prefer the lolmaker over Paint.

Oh, no more Webtv?

I haven't had that gadget since January. I haven't that much time to learn computer stuff so its been a slow road.

Good advice! And Conan did listen to his Dad!

Apparently, captions cannot be written on tinypic URLs.



I was going to put:
"OMG! I ate the last bonbon!"




Yes, I am a LOTS fan.

Another creation.

well, I made a blinkie!
Childish, but a person has to start somewhere!

Dollz, later.





Well, I didn't mean to put the writing that low. I clicked to the right of the image.
My son told me to be careful of these blinkie&doll building sites because some of them were loaded with malware. He said if I made a habit of using these generators, and builders to make sure to "clean" my computer at least once a month.
So, the tech fun comes at a price! Nothing is ever completelyeasy, or totally free!

You spelled cheap wrong aunt brown eye.

I meant to, because Wal-Mart is known as the Cheap-O store.

Paris relaxing.




The top one I think is temporary, but the second is photobucket.

Now, a conservative(lol)Britney Spears.

Denna, the beautiful but very evil, Mord-Sith. Well, the closest with what limited free dollmaking materials I have to work with.


Kahlan, the Mother Confessor. Ugh, really looks crude, but .png images is all that's created with the dollmaker. >shrugs<



Cara, Richard's protector and friend.


Princess left her shoes behind because she's like a Cinderella. So, the story goes.......

Um, look I really hate to seem pedantic, but there IS the spam forum for stuff like this.

It didn't start out that way!

When you have 3x more posts than any other active member on a forum.
You ARE the law.

@NeonVomit, if I accidently get Mod privileges again, I will move it. Maybe if one of your buds is secret moderator they can move it.


Anyway. Celine Dion. I saw her a few days ago on TV.





Needs no introduction. Still cannot make up her mind. No glasses props.

Madonna



The sneakers are out of place, but there were no black hi-heels available for that particular legs-form. But, its Madonna, so anything goes!



A better pic of Madonna using a different dollmaker.



Alien leader from TV show, "V". In human disguise, certainly.
