Hey Nick , regarding your Thread for posting pics - i've followed all your Instructions to the Letter & no joy . i Have the pics on flickr , but i haven't got a clue ! While not new to mtb'ing , i am to Computers :oops:
Any Help would be greatly appreciated

nicklouse

make a post with what you think it should be and then PM me the link if it does not work.

but with flicker make sure it finishes with.jpg (or whatever the file is and not some other letters)

I find photobucket easier for posting pics. Flickr is a bit of a ballache

And I agree with you Furbes, the nicklouse's topic on how to post pictures is not
so clear for most of the people who are new to computers or forums. Sorry, nicklouse :oops:

Nicklouse I think you should add to the curent thread this text too:

"When viewing the picture you want to post, press right mouse button on it and go Image
Properties. Then in the opened window, you should find an url adress that finishes
in .jpg, .gif or other image format. That adress you put it between the [img][/img]adress goes
here tags, and your done."

On a unrelated topic, where did you find that shock cover thing furbes? Does it work ok? I could do with one if it works well.

That link/url doesn't go anywhere either, there is no image at that address.

If you post the link to your own flickr profile myself or someone else will be able to check you have the correct url for the images.

I'm not sure on other sites, but if you upload to tinypic it will give you a series of codes once the pic is uploaded. One of these is the URL for the picture wrapped in IMG tags.

Copy that code and paste into your forum post...et voila.

It'll look like this

I've tried everyones Advice (thanks) , but no matter what i do it won't work . The Link that Nicklouse done for me with the Bike , if i put that on to my Signature & click on to it , i get a page 404 , or the pic is deleted .

Furbes. The easiest think you can do is:

View the picture you want to post. (if you can see it, then that means it's not deleted)
Move the mouse pointer over the picture and press the right mouse button over the pic.
On the pop up menu that appeared, go on the last option, Properties or Image Properties.(depends what browser you use).
Then on the opened window there is a part, called "Adress", and on the right side of it, there is the adress from the picture.
Select it and press ctrl+C (copy), and in the message box in this forum press ctrl+v (paste).
In the front of the adress put .

Press preview, and untill you see the picture correct yourself where you've made mistake.

Can't explain it simpler.

You want a thumbnail picture in your signature and when you press on it, shoud lead you to your pics on photobucket. Correct?

Then do the folowing:

View your picture you want to be thumbnail link, like this:
http://media.photobucket.com/image/funn ... de.jpg?o=2
Then there is a box on the right of the image called "Share this image", and press on the
"more" link below. Then press on the "Get link code" tab.
There you'll find an adress on the left of the "Clickable thumbnail".
Copy that one and paste it in the message box here. Then change the URL and IMG from
the code, to small letters like url and img. Then copy an adress where the pic link you
want to lead, and replace with the curren on the code. If you want to keep the same, just
copy the adress from the adress bar on the browser to the current url because this is
what it appears to me if I don't replace the url.



But If I replace it, eventhough it's the same it works.



And at the end copy the final code to the signature box.
