Guide on how to post a picture

[rooster]

Trying to understand the preceding tech stuff but struggling. Apologies if this goes wrong, but I am technically a numpty. It is official.

Here goes anyway.

<a href="http://img.photobox.co.uk/666796853763d23e301ff729791571024237783b4482909951bcb7bd.jpg">http://img.photobox.co.uk/666796853763d23e301ff729791571024237783b4482909951bcb7bd.jpg</a>

Tried the above but it only shows once I click the link. Havent understood what I have done wrong. Help requested. Thanks, G.



Thanks Stefan, now I comprehend the little square bracket thingys to start and finish the activity.

....??? OK so it seems I need to type the [pic] stuff for a pic to appear, but from what I've just worked out, not on a link....THIS site seems to include the [url]/[/url] business, and a link appears as just a link if I ONLY type the full http address of a link without the [url] stuff.....er, right. BUT links freakout if you edit a post...hmmmm

Ta , (sort of) I don't know how you figure which part of the address to use or dump

[rich 36]

I use tinypic, as novice, its really simple, and after the first couple of times, you'll wonder, what the fuss was about http://tinypic.com/

[mannginger]

I use www.flikr.com

A fair amount of space to use for free (and good rates for a massive amount of space), very easy hosting, sharing and sorting facilities:

So why the hell won't this thing work?

GRRRRRRR
