Photo dumb question
How do I post photos in a thread? PhotoBucket has six things I can copy and paste; email & IM, HTML embed, flash embed, slide show, story and story imbed, which one will attach a photo?

When you hit post reply there are additional options below where you can manage attachments, attach files.

Here's one way:
Do you have your photos on your computer? If so, hit "Go Advanced," then look for the paper clip on the top row, to the right of the white smiley. When you tap the clip, a new window, "Manage Attachments," will open. Now you hit "Choose File" and yet another window will open, this time for you to find and select the photo you want to use. The "Upload" button lights up. When your photo has completed opening, the name of the photo will appear under "Current Attachments" in that window. Repeat up to (I think) 5 times.
It takes more time to explain than to do it!

From my earlier experience with PB the link that has "[IMG].....[/IMG]" is the one to use for this forum. Just copy and paste into your reply. Things, as they often do in the tech world, may have changed. YMMV.

drop photo bucket and go to postimage. super simple, very user friendly.
select your photo, click on the share button and choose the "forum share" tab then paste the photo link into your post.
So easy even I can manage it.
It is easier than using the forum tools for putting photos in your posts.

if your starting a thread just scroll down the page and it will say "manage attachments" click on that and it will open a window. Click on browse and download from whatever folder in your computer you keep your photos. If it's someone else thread use the advanced button at the bottom of the post.

follow GerSan69 and andy52 directions please. Don't be at the mercy of photo hosting websites.
This way your photos will not disappear from the forum.

Look at the bottom of the thread page as if your going to reply.
You'll see a post reply which would be what you typed. Next to it there is "Advanced" when you click on that look father down the page and you'll see manage attachments.

Generally if you click on quote you'll get the advance setting, this is what I just did with your post, and a photo of my 3rd model .44.

Go to IMGUR.COM. Load your pictures there and when you want to post your picture, not the link, copy it from your IMGUR files and then paste it into your reply.
