TrampledUnderFoot Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 uhhhh, I have no clue what-so-ever as to how to put pictures into your posts...? please please please help ::
Brad_M Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 Trampled, Here's how to do it: At the top of the Songfacts page, click on FAQ. Scroll down until you see "How do I add an image to my message"? The instructions are printed there.
invisible_r Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 i tried it once but i just got the address. oh well, probably did something wrong
edna Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 Go to this site: http://uploadimages.net/. Then choose your picture, click on the little box (in spanish they put "examinar", I don´t know in english) and you´ll see your files. Just click on the pic you want to post et voilà! You can also choose a picture from the web, copy the name of the site of the picture; go to "Post" and then click "Image". Erase the http you see in the box and paste your link. then click "OK" and when you confirm your post you mught see the picture. Ouf!! It took me months to know to to do it and yet I can´t reduce a picture... hope our indications help!
Brad_M Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 Invisible, >save the pic to an image hosting site and copy the image URL that they create for the pic. >go to your SongFacts page post. >click on the markup code icon that says "image". >paste the URL you copied into the pop up box and click "ok".
Earth-Angel Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 Most common mistakes? Double image tags Double http sources like for URL's and Image hosting through certain webservers like Tripod. Make sure you open the page source of the image, not the link page
invisible_r Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 so what have i done wrong? sorry, im a bit useless sometimes ok i figured it out. thanx everyone!
Brad_M Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 Edna, Thanks for the tip. I was making my reply and when I posted it, I read yours about clicking on the "image" link. All along, I've been typing the brackets and the word image in the box. I didn't know about the link that automatically enters that for you. I edited my post where i was explaining about typing it in the box and made it "click on the link" like you said. That is so much easier. You rock!
Brad_M Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 Besides "uploadimages.net" that Edna has in her post, you'll also find "photobucket.com" in the link on Angel's page about how to upload images. That's the one that I use for personal pics from my own computer.
Earth-Angel Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 Aah Rachel, you'll find if you click the thumbnail of that pic, that the source page no longer exists. So when you insert the image in tags, it's searching for the source but coming up empty - that is why it will only display the URL of the thumbnail image through google This is the actual source for the image you are after, and as you can see - it's not there anymore. I always make sure to follow the image right through to the source page as often google will have the thumbnail, but not the image file or the image is hosted by a webserver that does not allow linking like tripod.

It took me a long time to know how to post... then finally my husband (who´s a graphic & web designer) said "Come on, it´s so easy, you go like this, and then this, and now you click here, now go copy, etc..." ... strange thing but I learned how to do it!
TrampledUnderFoot Posted March 6, 2005 Author Report Posted March 6, 2005 Thanks everyone! I'm gonna try it now...
TrampledUnderFoot Posted March 6, 2005 Author Report Posted March 6, 2005 YAY!!!! :: thanks guys! :: :guitar:
Brad_M Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 Good choice with the Kiss pic, Trampled. Kiss Rocks!
edna Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 Wow, I´d never believed that I would be able to explain how to post a picture... well, at least I got to post mines...
TrampledUnderFoot Posted March 6, 2005 Author Report Posted March 6, 2005 Good choice with the Kiss pic, Trampled. Kiss Rocks! Your on my good list
TrampledUnderFoot Posted March 7, 2005 Author Report Posted March 7, 2005 That's not KISS. Trust me. whadda ya mean?
Brad_M Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 Jr. wrote: That's not KISS. Trust me. Trampled wrote: whadda ya mean? Trampled, Jr. is correct. I didn't take a close look at the photo until Jr. made that comment. Good eye, Jr. If you look closely at the faces, it is not Kiss. I followed the URL for the photo and it took me to a website that was forbidden on my server, but in between the flashing of the page, I saw the name, Kiss Forever Band. I looked them up and they are a Kiss tribute band from Hungary. You can check them out here: Kiss Forever Band
TrampledUnderFoot Posted March 7, 2005 Author Report Posted March 7, 2005 Wow, your right...I can tell by Paul Stanley. Damn.
_jr_ Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 Let it be known....when it comes to KISS, jr. is always right. Well, maybe not. But I am a member of a small band of KISS Army members in here. jrownsdega katie sane foxy1983 Ken Rats...I know there are one or two more, but I am having a brain freeze right now.
