hi,

i am trying to sell parts from my car but i do not know how to post pics. can someone give me detail instructions.

 

Sign up for a free account at a site like photobucket or imageshack. Then upload the pictures to those sites. They will give you a url for each picture, just post the url in the thread. I use photobucket and it's really simple to use.

 

Do you have access to webspace? Because the pictures that you want to display will have to be hosted on either any personal webspace you may have access to or a host site like http://www.fileplanet.com unfortunately you will have to register for a gamespy I.D. in order to upload files with them. Other than that it is just a matter of getting a place to put your pics and then linking your post to them using the insert image button on the thread submission page before or after you type the message you want to send. It is a good idea not to use a picture that is larger than 550 x 500 because the picture will be difficult to see on the screen if it is much larger.

 

cardomain is the site i use. but are the programs you guys mentioned are they easy to use.

 

Photobucket is very easy to use. www.photobucket.com

 

The same principle applies for cardomain, or any of those sites.

 

To hopefully simplify it:

- Resize picture to at least smaller than 640x480. Heres a link to the Powertoys Image Resizer from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx

- Host picture on web. I personally use Photobucket. Great site, good amount of storage/bandwidth and easy to use. Just have to register first.

- Copy link of picture from hosting site (should be produced for you), then go to your reply/thread on the .org.

- Insert <IMG> before link, then </IMG> after link.

Done. Might want to use the test posting area first to check it out.
