To paste a picture on this forum. ***Before you start go to your picture website eg: Tinypic and copy the code under 'Direct Link for Layouts'***
1. Go to post a quick reply. 2. Hover you mouse over the little icon that looks like a picture. It says 'Insert Image'. 3. click on it 4. A pop up will open with a place for you to put your code 5. paste your code into the pop up. Click ok and the picture will appear in your reply.
To place a picture and a link in your signature. 1. In 'edit profile' there is a place for your signature. 2. If you want to add a link to your picture you need to load in the picture first. See above for method. 3. Then select the pic with one click. You will see a select box around you picture. 4. Then click on the icon that looks like a link. I says 'Insert Link' if you hover over it. 5. Another pop up and copy the code for the page you wish to link to. Click ok and you're done.
Hope this helps.

About posting to the forum as a reply. Is there a way to use the pictures from my studio on the site? Or do I have to use an outside source? I tried to post the images from my studio into the picture thread. If I used the [img] [/img] codes and got a broken link icon. Just the URL got a hyperlink but no picture. And if I do use an outside source can I control the picture size? I have a Snapfish account and an old photo bucket account. | |

For using the pics in the studio, I just copy and paste them. You need to click on them and then copy the bigger image. Hope this helps! | |

Hi EQ, Direct image links from your studio should work. Also, this forum automatically resizes any pictures you insert that is too big, so you don't have to worry about resizing them. Here's a screenshot direct from my studio just to test and confirm...
