Adding Photos To Forum Posts
Mike Barrio:
Hi folks :cool:
Adding photos to posts is something that people often find difficult :z8
Let's make better use of the Photo Gallery and keep things simple!
You will notice that there is now a link above the text box when you are making a new post or reply "Add image to post and upload to gallery".
Please use this for adding photos to your posts, it is a great system and even resizes them for you! :cool:
When you click on it, a pop up appears:
1 - Give your photo a title or descriptive name. ( useful for finding the photo in a future gallery search )
2 - Click on "Choose file" to find your photo on your PC or phone, highlight the photo file and then click on the "Open" button.
3 - Now click on "Add picture", this will upload your photo to the gallery and insert a link in the text box to make the photo display in your post.
Treat the text link as a paragraph and simply press return to create a space between your photo and your text *smiley-wink*
Previewing your post: When you click the preview button, scroll up above the text editor box to see the preview. Then scroll down again to either continue writing/editing, or to hit the Post button.
Please don't post photos of dead fish ....... this has become a sort of unspoken rule by forum members over the years.
And please use best practice ....... minimum handling, keeping your fish in, or very briefly above, the water at all times :z16
Cheers
