How do you paste a picture directly in your post?

When I post a comic for grading opinions it comes as an attachment. How do you get the picture directly into the post?

Post a test in the test thread. The open the thread. Copy the URL and then paste in the thread you want using the Image link.

 

(I think that's correct )

Thanks for the info, but I have no idea what you were talking about!!!

Up in the Water Cooler Section of the forums, there is a Test Thread.

 

Make a post with the attachment (like has been happening to you, you will not see the image).

 

Click on the attachment and your image will pop up. Copy the URL at the top of your page.

 

Then, go to/start the thread you would like to post your picture in.

 

Down in the right hand corner of the "post page", you'll see the Instant UBB Code. Click it and paste the copied URL in it.

 

Click submit.

 

Your image should appear.

 

I think that should work. Sorry about the vagueness of the last post.

D'oh! Here's an easier way.

 

Post like you've been doing with your attachment.

 

Once you've made the post, "Edit It" and do the same thing with the Image UBB Code that I said last time.

 

Should work.

Ok I am an insufficiently_thoughtful_person! Where is the test thread / water cooler section?

 

Also, is that Ali G in your avatar?

1) Create the post as usual, and attach the image.

 

2) Click on the ATTACHMENT link and COPY the URL.

 

3) Go back an edit the original post and click the IMAGE link under "Instant UBB Code" and COPY the URL in.

 

Save the changes and your post will have both the attachment link and the included image within the text.

You can try to decipher mine, or you can go with JC's easy-to-follow instructions.

Ok, I know how to copy the URL.

 

Then where can I find the IMAGE link under the INSTANT UBB CODE to copy the URL in. Also, can I do this for multiple images in the same post.

 

Nuff Respec (like Ali G says)

[chrisco37]

When you go to "Reply" page, down next to the Greamlins ( ), you will see the "Instant UBB Code".

 

Click "Image" and you can paste the URL into the "box".

 

Hit "OK".

 

Then, hit "submit" (at the bottom). Hit "submit" again and your image should post.
