How To post Images


Recommended Posts

First, you need to have the picture in a place on the web where it can reside, such as Photopoint or another hosting service (if you have a Mac you can use your iDisk).To add a graphic within your message, just encase the URL of the graphic image as shown in the following example.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR> [ IMG]http://www.infopop.com/artwork/footer_logotype.gif <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

I have added an additioinal space after the first bracket so you can see the code. Which will get you the following with out the extra space:

footer_logotype.gif

In the example above, the UBBCode™ automatically makes the graphic visible in your message. Note: the "http://" part of the URL is REQUIRED for the %7Boption%7D code. Also note: some UBB forums may disable the %7Boption%7D tag support to prevent objectionable images from being viewed.

This is found in the UBB code in the FAQ located in the upper right corner of the forum in little teeny letters. The UBB info is a bit buried now, but is found here: http://www.battlefront.com/cgi-bin/bbs/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=ubb_code_page

I hope this helps.

So I need to have my image "reside" some place.

Are there any areas (preferably free) that someone can reccommend.

Thanks again!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

[photopoint is free now but will turn into a pay site in a few weeks, and you get ~10 pics hosted free.

right now the only free website place that lets u post on the forum is homestead.com

dont know if that will last for long either...
