Image uploading onto this Forum using an external photo-hosting service.

This is a test of inserting from Photobucket. Other hosting services for images may also work.

I have set up a Photobucket account and the above is a paste of the link from there. It uses the IMG Code link.

The code is "{IMG}http://i934.photobucket.com/albums/ad184/goldenp/5_TrainHotelStaff_Large... {/IMG}" note square brackets substituted for curly ones to diaply the syntax.

This method will overcome the restriction of only being able to upload one image file per submission using this Forum Software.

Photobucket provides a free service for about 500mbytes of images. After that there is a subscription to pay.

I cannot upload any picture, although I am down to 400 X 200 size. What might be the problem ? Help, please!

This image is 640 wide and is 211kbytes

I used Select image file to attach, the Browse button to locate it on my PC

Then I used the (img) button

That placed a marker in the post where the image goes (img/) I replaced the square brakets with round brakets as the image would have been uploaded twice.

Then press the Submit button

And hey presto it is posted with image where it is wanted.

You can only upload one image at a time with this method as explained in the help page.

This worked first time so there is no system problem.
