posting pictures

[Super Black]

Hi everyone, I would like some info on how to post my pictures. I'd like to show some of the pictures of fish caught this year and I have no idea on how to post them. Thanks SB

first you have to move your pictures to a HSOforum where you can load your pictures into your own file, I use imagehost. just transfer your pictures there, which is easy. after loginning in, upload images, hit the button browser to find the pictures you want from your computer, then transfer them over. its free. www.afreeimagehost.com

once you select the pictures you want, hit the copy tab, then paste that into your post, use the img style.

First off, if the pictures are on your computer there is a step that will help you out greatly before you try to post the pictures. When you view your pictures: right click the photo, open with- choose paint, at the top click image, select sketch and skew, change the %'s of the picture to 50% or less, then X out of that, save photo, now you're ready to go to a image hosting site. I use www.imageshack.com and it's rather easy. When in their site, go to the "Browse" area, when look for the -downsized-picture you have, click "host it" and then highlight the top option they have ( ...), right click, copy, and go to www.fishingminnesota.com and paste the photo where you want it on the site and you're good to go!

This seems pretty tough but is rather easy once you get the hang of it. Just be sure to shrink the %'s of the picture or else it will take up too much space on the site. If you have any other ?'s for me feel free to e-mail me at [email protected] and I'll try and help you out.

Good Luck,

I guess I figured out how to get the link, but how do I post just the picture without have to click on the link to see a photo.

The funning thing about this is that I work on a computer all day every day.

looks like your working hard there bud?? Nice fish picture! where was that at? I am going to Alaska this July for a fishing trip. should be a blast.

Make sure to replace [ ] below with < > when you actually do it.

First, you have to right click on the picture you want to post and bring up the properties. Then highlight the URL address, right click and hit copy. Then all you need to do is paste it in the command below. [img src=" "]

I think I finally got it!Now I just need to downsize it.

[hobbydog]

You were really close there strohs but you need to resize. The pic is 1904 X 1432 pixels.....you want it to be about 900 X 400 pixels.

An easy way to do it is click the image button in the "instant UBB Code" box and then just past the URL.

[Deitz Dittrich]

Extream-your doing it right.. its the format that the picture is int that is causing the problems.. nice muskie by the way!

[EXTREME]

I am confused. What format is the picture supposed to be? I thought it was a jpeg. Anyway, it would be great to be able to post some pics....I have lots to share. Thanks

[EXTREME]

I am going to try a different site.

Confusious says..."I am confused"

[LuckyFish]

Going to give this a try.

EXTREME-

Is this your photo?? I followed your link and saved it to my ImageShack account and it works fine.

You are doing everything right as far as format and UBB Code. I think it might be your host. When I clicked properties on your photo at the site, it said there was an error in the way the photo displayed.

Try Imageshack. Just do a search and it will pop up. I've been using it for awhile and it works great. No bandwith problems or format problems that are associated with some of the other host sites.

[EXTREME]

Yea, that is a photo of my ex brother in law's 47" muskie from Moose Lake in Grand Rapids. I will try your advice and try again. Thanks for the help
