Having trouble uploading pictures from AGO gallery

[top189h]

I did my first write up last night, and I am not too tech savy, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I read Mike's articles, and I think I did it correctly, however none of my pictures showed up in the thread. I checked the dimensions in the gallery, and they measure less than 800 which is the pixles I assume. I'm not sure why they're not showing up.

Thank you, whenever I look at the post, all I saw were little links to open the images.

The "links" are the URL Address, or the webpage addresss. YOu need to use the IMG tags to tell the browser to display the pictures.

How to use Image Tags to insert a photo



There's an button you can use to insert an image in the collection of tools for formatting at the top of the message box when working on a vBulletin forum.

It looks like this,


And it will automatically insert the image tags for you and place them at the front and back of the URL Address for you pictures.


Another way to do it is to type them out yourself using the block quote, the forward slash and the letters IMG

To do this you first need the URL Address for the image and then copy and paste it in-between an opening and closing IMG tag. In most cases you can get the URL Address for any picture you on a website by >>>Right Clicking<<< on top of the image and then in the dialog box that pops up, locate the URL Address and highlight and copy it.

Then type out an opening image tag, then copy and paste the URL Address immediately after it and then type in the image closing tag.

This is an image opening tag,




This is an image closing tag,




This is an URL Address
