Please help me with a "Posting Pics FAQ"

[Damsella]

I'd like to get a sticky together to help damsels who want to post pics.

As I'm a bit rushed today, please could anyone who feels like it post a) their favourite sitec for picture hosting, and b) what you do there to get your picture hosted.

Any other instructions you feel like adding, like how to do the [img] code, would be HUGELY appreciated :yes:

Many thanks! 8)

to resize pictures i use
www.resize2mail.com

you just browse for image and resize it..its pretty much step by step even i can use it

to host the image i use

www.tinypic.com

which is same again you just browse for image you resized then copy paste the link it gives you

[noo noo]

I host on http://tinypic.com

You use the Browse button to find the image on your PC, then the Host one to upload it and then copy the [IMG] code into your Damsel post and thats it!

Repeat as necessecary for however many pics you wnat to post.

I must be really dim as I can't figure out how to use it

I put photo name in the first box, selected reduce by 50% the OK and it took me to the next page. I finally found the New Image name but what do I do next? Tried copying that and just pasting it in Tinypic but nothing....

Have posted a photo (finally) in Damsels Photos but it a tad BIG. Please help....

For hosting pics

www.photobucket.com, just set up a free account and upload the photos to it, from here you can resize them by clicking on edit - you can only reduce not enlarge.

Then just copy and paste the code that starts [img]

[Jamtart]

For resizing I open them in paint and then click on 'image', then 'sketch/skew' then change the values of horizontal and vertical (the the same value or it goes funny) then save it

For hosting I use www.photobucket.com too - Jo, I can't seem to get resize to work on there, thats why I use paint first might just be me tho

Seems to work okay for me, I just click 'reduce to 75% of size' and see how big it makes it, if it is not small enough I just try it again!
