I have read through several threads lately that some of the members are having a difficult time with posting pictures, or just don't know how to do it.
Well I am here to help you. If you follow my simple instructions you should be off and running and hopefully have no more difficulties.
HOW TO POST A PIC ON THE Maanglers.com FORUM:
1. Get your picture on your computer in the .jpg form.
2. Go to a site like, http://www.photobucket.com (http://www.photobucket.com/) or Maanglers.com Photogallery
3. Sign up or whatever you have to do and follow their or Maanglers.com instructions on how to post the picture on their, Maanglers.com.
4. Once you get it on their or Maanglers.com, when looking at the picture uploaded on their or Maanglers.com site...right click the picture itself...click properties and highlight and copy the URL that is there...
5. When in the Maanglers.com forum while creating a new thread, click the INSERT IMAGE http://images.zeroforum.com/new/1/img.gif icon under located in the tool bar.
6. You will see a empty box that says "Please Enter The URL OF YOUR IMAGE" above the post paste the URL where it say http://. Or if you photo is already on a website copy and paste your photo URL and type this in your post past your URL inbetween . Follow seven.
7. There should be NO SPACES in between the URL and the brackets. For example {img}URL-HERE{/img}
(I had to use the wrong brackets to fool the system, if I would have used the real brackets [] a red x would have popped up, these brackets are the right ones [] .)
An additional tip on sizing your pics:
Nobody enjoys scrolling from left to right to see a picture. Therefore, to reduce the dimensions you'll need to go into a graphics program and adjust the size before you save it on the host server. Sometimes this can be done when saving the file and selecting the resolution you want to save it (640X480 is a good size). If the file size is too large for the host server, save the file in the JPEG format. If that doesn't work, you can try cropping the picture to reduce its size, which in turn should decrease the file size. Gill Finn offered me this site today to give a try if anyone wants to resize their pic's for reports. http://www.imageresizer.com/
The instructions for posting sound much more complex than they really are, and it takes longer to read through them than to post a pic. http://floridasportsman.com/art/biglaugh.gif
And if you need any assistance, just ask one of the moderators or me. Hope this helps clear up any questions or issue's.
