so it has been asked how to post a COE related pic to a thread. I think it is established that internal COEs Social Group governing has determined the strict guidelines mandated on the main board are not held in as high regard here, so feel free to post your non-COE, post '64, and I guess even your second favorite hobby, cake decorating pictures here without fear of judgement or abuse. except for the cake pictures, those will be ridiculed, unless you're sharing said cake. moving on. there is more than one way to skin a cat and more than one way to post your cat-skinning pictures. I started to type out my own version, but got overwhelmed with laziness (ie, it's time to get to my real job) so here is a copyclip of the instructions from the main board. feel free to pm me with specific questions. I will respond as promptly as my schedule allows. before you take off with the first example read the second. it is the better way for the board. enjoy! JML There is still some frustration and confusion regarding posting of pictures. hope this will help. If something I have written is confusing let me know and I will try to re-write it in a clearer fashion. To Post to the HAMB's Server 1. click on reply 2. scroll down below the area reserved for text responses. 3. find the " manage attachments" gray box and click it 4. browse your hard drive for a picture(s) and then hit upload 5. after a short wait for uploading - click submit reply If your pictures are less than 80kb's each you will see your pictures in the post. If you attached pictures that are too big you will see an empty image box....re-size your pictures and try again. Next we need a tutorial on resizing and options for software. To Post by linking a photo from another website 1. click on "user cp" pull down menu 2. click on "edit options" 3. scroll down to the bottom of the page to " miscellaneous options" 4. change selection to " enhanced interface full WYSIMYG editing " 5. now you can post links to pictures from other webpages and hosted sites. 6. to post a picture link hit reply to post 7. above the area to type a message are many icons. Select the icon and then type in or paste the address of the picture. an example would be the address for the above icon. right click it and select properties. copy and paste the address given under properties. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/...insertimage.gif Linking pictures has many benefits. It doesn't use up HAMB bandwidth and slow down Ryans server. You can post a much larger and prettier picture with a link. There is no 80kb limit. this is a direct copy of http://jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=65684 other helpful pic-related threads: "photo posting revisted" by 59FORD "Re-Sizing photographs" by 30roadster "Simple picture re-sizing" by HOTRODPRIMER
vintage56, Thank you, I will be giving it a try shortly on a info post on: removing broken bolts/studs. I was not aware that a how too was on the main board, still learning all the resources available to us. Again Thanks!
Hey Mr. Vintage56. I must be doing something wrong. When I click on "reply", I do not get a box anywhere that says "manage attachments". What am I doing wrong? HELP! Lynn
well, I"m not seeing it either... that might be outdated information. It isn't the process I use to post pics. I use the second version linking from a host site. try the second set of instructions and I will look into the first. if it's in err, I will edit that post to remove it. JML
