How to Post Your Photos!..PHOTOS!..PHOTOS!!!
 

Hi Everyone,

This is Russ at Photobucket. A lot of you have been asking how to post photos to this forum, so I thought I would create this easy to follow tutorial as an up-to-date reference.

First of all, most forums won’t let you upload photos directly to their site (they just don’t have enough room on their servers to host every photo from every user). Instead, they require you to link to images that are stored somewhere else on the web. This “somewhere else” is where Photobucket comes in. Photobucket is a site that will store (also known as hosting), your images for free, and allow you to grab the image’s linking information with just one click. It’s that’s easy.

Step number one: Get a free Photobucket account here.

Step number two: Upload your photos to your new Photobucket account.

Step number three: Post your photo into a forum thread. There are two ways to do this, and with Photobucket, they only require one click apiece.

The first way is to use the “Insert Photo” button in the toolbar when you create a new thread or response. First, find the photo on Photobucket in a new tab or window, locate the “Links to share this photo” box to the right of the image, and simply click on the bottom option, labeled “Direct”. Photobucket automatically copies the code for you, so there’s no need to right click and select copy from a menu. Next, open a new thread or response in the forum and click on the Insert Image button. A new dialogue box will appear asking you to enter the URL address for the photo. Simply paste the info you grabbed from Photobucket into the dialogue box and you’re done. Easy.

The other way to post a photo is to skip the Insert Photo button and just use the BBCode. BBCode is the language that almost all forums speak; fortunately, Photobucket does too! Simply find the photo on Photobucket that you want to link to. Then, in the “Links to share this photo” box to the right of the photo, simply click on the third option from the top, labeled “IMG”. Since this is already written in BBCode, you just paste it right into the text of the thread you are creating, and presto!
