Thanks Tim. I have it figured out now. And I also learned how to reduce the size of the photo so It wouldn't take up more than the whole page.

The most common problem is mis-copying the image link. Over the years I've made a habit out of drag and highlighting things like that, then hitting Ctrl + C to copy, followed by Ctrl + V to paste images and stuff. RIGHT clicking things is also very useful.

Avoid writing image tags or addresses out in longhand, and then typing them out one character at a time, because it will increase your chances of missing something. Practice "COPYING" and "PASTING" until you get it down, and you'll wonder why you ever did it any other way!

The thing that goes wrong the most is missing the very last ] in the image code, it pays to look for it...

You should still be able to put up images anyway.
In the lower left there is a small square that in my case says this inside it:

What happens if you go to your user CP and click on "ALBUMS" on the left?

Also check on your "GARAGE"...

Both of those are easy-upload picture storage places that you can link pics from to post in forums

What's happening is that you're not getting the link with the image tags included - else it would look like this:


When you go to your albums, click on a picture, and look underneath it there are two text boxes. One is a link TO THE PICTURE - and the other (I think it's the second one, at the bottom) is "FOR POSTING IN FORUMS" and it has the [img] and [/img] tags at the front and back of it. In order to work there can't be any spaces between the tags and the image URL or LINK.

For example: I can enter: [img] https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/p...ictureid=13598 [/img] and it doesn't work, see?

In your case it should look like (img)https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/p...eid=13598(/img) except that the "(" and ")" marks would be "[" and "]" marks - I used ordinary parenthesis so that the post would not go ahead and show the picture anyway...

You're almost there, just need to fine tune it a bit.
