Thread: Why can't I post up an image?

Franz,
click the little landscape icon ("insert image") above the text box that you're typing in and then past the URL in the popup.

or

type ""
..... without the "

good luck
Stevo


.......................... reread the Question.......

do you have the correct URL for the image or are you using the page URL ???
right click the image, click "properties" and copy the image's URL from the properties box.

Hi Stevo,

That's what I'm doing - still no image.

Cheers,

Is the image hosted somewhere on the 'net or are you trying to put one up from your PC?

Franz,

I use www.photobucket.com to host my images, and they all come up perfectly, using the method described above.

You definitely need a photo hosting website to get your pictures up onto the internet for others to see.

No, you don't. You can post directly from your PC by using the "Manage Attachments" button below the text area of the message you are creating.

Ron,

I've tried both Shutterfly and Photobucket with the same result (or lack thereof!)

Cheers,

Franz

I'll give it a try and see how I go.

If you want me to talk you through it over the phone, I can.
