Photo Questions

[Justin]

Hey all I was wondering on how you guys upload pictures and insert them into the discussion. Also how to create your own photo gallery in the user galleries. Even though I have been registered for over a month I still have not figured everything out yet. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry this took so long Justin

Photo Gallery
Create/order my albums
click new type in name of album
click on upload file
select pic you want upload by using browse
continue
after upload place in your album

putting pic in discussions like this
http://railroadfan.com/gallery/displayi ... pos=-17121
go to gallery highlight the URL like this but with no brakets
{http://railroadfan.com/gallery/displayi ... pos=-17121}
copy and past to the message
like this

if you want clickable thumbs
OK this is how I set it up



then you have to add an = sign between the l and the bracket on your first url like this



I will use one of your pics for an example

Link to this page: http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPi ... ?id=176873


Copy this portion

http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPi ... ?id=176873



copy that between the = sign and the right bracket

Like this


Then go to your thumbnail right click go to properties click open the window

Copy the address URL

http://ccaranna.rrpicturearchives.net/p ... orth-2.jpg

insert it betreen the [img] [img]

It will look like this

[img]http://ccaranna.rrpicturearchives.net/p ... -2.jpg[img] I removed the / slash from the last img so you could see what it looks like.


so for your clickable thumb it will look like this

URL FROM YOUR PICTURE[/i]][img]adress%20URL%20from%20your%20thumb[/img] [/i]

Hope this helps somewhat
