Title: How-To: ...attach or insert a picture to/into a post
Post by: TechAdmin on 14 June 2009, 19:40:52
Inserting images into a post:

To insert images is simple (if you have an URL to it), to insert those in posts you use the "Insert Image" Button (2nd row, 2nd from the left) above your composition box and insert the URL (or, alternatively with the same result, type the URL, highlight it and then apply "Insert Image" Button).

Example: with the URL http://www.surfersvillage.com/gal/pictures/30Air_Combat_SC_-2007_4_Bas.jpg (http://www.surfersvillage.com/gal/pictures/30Air_Combat_SC_-2007_4_Bas.jpg)

Inserted Images will be reduced in size (when bigger) to a width of 750 px

Attaching images to a post:

If you want to upload an attachment (e.g. from your comp), use the "Additional Options" Menu under your composition box (where you write your post), when it is expanded it gives you the attachment options. I have set max attachment size to 128 KB currently (see attachment below: It's a thumbnail of myself "baracked", click on it to expand).

Hope that helps,

TechAdmin

Do not panic if you do not see a picture you posted in a quoted post:

In order to make pages shorter we have set the forum to replace pictures in posts with the tag "<quoted picture removed> (see example below).

THIS DOES NOT MEAN YOUR PICTURE WAS REMOVED!
