Try and post something here as you would normally and I'll see if I can see what's going wrong.

You're linking to a web page, not directly to the image. Use the code provided on that page
- IMG Code - Forums & Bulletin Boards to give you the direct link.

Just put [pic] and [/pic] either side of the url (no spaces).

ETA: It should be IMG in the last set of brackets, not URL. Either [pic] or [IMG] works

Go to http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v157/Harvez/Supr... (where you linked to).

Right click the image you want, go to View image. Then you should be able to see the image and only the image. this is a direct link to the picture. Put that into the tags that you previously did.

You are linking to the page that holds the image with the outer frame, that will not work. You will need the actual IMG code provided on the page.

At the bottom right of the page there is the link to put it into the forums.


IMG Code - Forums & Bulletin Boards

[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v157/Harvez/Supra%20TwinTurbo/2006_0101LeMans0030.jpg[/IMG]


If you put the text with the IMG tags then it will work... eg


ETA: Just repeating what you said Rob smile
