Your boat pic is on your hard drive:

file:///C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/My Documents/petes docs/My Pictures/shady pics/shady lady oc

It needs to be somewhere YBW's server can see it - ie on the web somewhere. YSomeone on here runs a gallery you can put it on if you don't have any other web space accessible.

For example, the address of my sig picture is http://www.bluemoment.com/fairwindsig.gif

If I put this address in between [image] tags it shows up in the post as well:

I can put any image in teh post as long as I know the address. (To find the address of an image, right-click on it and select 'properties' from the menu that appears)

For example, having just noticed my little PM icon flashing to say I had a new PM, I right-clicked onit to find that its address (URL) was http://www.ybw.com/forums/images/newpm.gif

Now I will miraculously make this appear in the post by putting that URL in [image] tags, et voila

Hope this helps

- Nick

You need to click here. Then on the forum burgee. First picture.
Then click on "add pic" Then browse.
No one can force me to come here. I'm a volunteer!!.

You have to put an [image] tag in front of the URL then a closing [/image] tag after it.

Leave off the ?0.673729803090541 - image files on the web always end in .jpg, .gif or .png

It works - look:

PS - Nice looking boat . . .

It'll never work with that pic cos its just too damn big. The file size for B1's site has got to be less that 30kb and the avatar size for this site has gotta be 75x30 pixels or simmink.
Resize the pic and then try again.
