why cant you post jpg pics?

[ZEEK1223]

all my pics are jpg,and I would like to share some of them through out the forum

You can, just look above a bit and find the "How to post pics here" thread and read through there. Very easy to do, but you have to use a photo hosting site.

[Royce Aardahl]

image host is pretty easy to use

[Steve Foss]

image host, photobucket and flickr are all popular, free, and easy to use.

[ZEEK1223]

I use shutterfly, every time i copy and paste. My post only shows text....

[Steve Foss]

zeek, please post an example.

zeek it looks like you're grabbing from the wrong line of code. I'm not familiar with shutterfly, but most online hosts allow you to copy and paste a code that looks like this:

[*IMG]

Note: I added the asterisk (*) before the first I in the code so you'd see the code instead of the picture.

[ZEEK1223]

yeah, im not sure. still trying to figure it out. Thanks for the replies

[Steve Foss]

If you can't make it work, sign up with photobucket. When you add images there, you can go to your directory and there are four lines of code below each image. Simply copy and paste the bottom (fourth) line of code into your post here on FM and it'll show right up.

I actually have an account with photo bucket, but only have a few pics on there. I did get it to work with photo bucket no problem. It just sucks that all my pics are on shutterfly....thanks agian

[Steve Foss]

Glad you got it to go, zeek, and that's a nice shot.

[ZEEK1223]

one of just a few pics I have on photo bucket. I thought shutterfly was much nicer for sending albums to friends and family. Its been a while since ive been on photo bucket, and now i see that it is set up very nice as well. nice to finally figure it out though. I really wanted to post some pics on the bass forum. Once again it sucks that all my pics are on shutterfly.

[Steve Foss]

Well, shutterfly may have pretty easy options for online posting, too, zeek, I just don't know anything about that hosting site. May be worth another look around for you if you have so many images on there.

[ZEEK1223]

I will probably delete that pic, my girlfriend would kill me if she knew i posted her pic on a primarily manly man site

ZEEK,

I showed my wife your cat and she loves the markings on him/her. She really wants an American Shorthair which bears similar markings.

[ZEEK1223]

not sure of the breed of the cat. We got him at the golden valley humane society. That is a very nice place to get a pet.

[Lisa Almquist]

Your cat is a American Shorthair with tabby markings. We have a cat who looks just like yours!

[Steve Foss]

Lisa, you beat me to it.

[ZEEK1223]

This is my first time posting in the photo forum, and I must say you all have been so nice,non critical,and helpful. I have posted all over this forum, and its nice to feel like I can send a post that is not going to be mocked or ridiculed.

[Steve Foss]

zeek, friendliness and support is what we're about. Glad to see you in here.

[Dbl]

Looks just like my cat, they must be a dime a dozen. And mine was also purchased from the Humane Society in Golden Valley. Glad you got it all figured out on posting the shot!

I'm pretty sure shutterfly doesn't do image hosting like photobucket / imageshak, etc...
