I'll keep this as a step-by-step process, though there are a few ways to upload pictures to a forum such as this. I'll outline the differences as we go along and I'll be using this thread for pictorial demos so if you zoom in to the pics you'll feel a little deja-vu!
Step one: Have a picture that you'd like to upload. I'm going to use a screenshot of this:
If you have a bunch of pictures to upload, select them all here, you can hold the "Ctrl" button on your keyboard and click on each picture you want. Once they are in the New Thread or New Post edit window you can click and hold on each picture to drag it around the text and place it where you want. Or you can upload each picture individually from start to finish using these steps, it's really your choice. This is what the select files window looks like:
At this point you can either select more files for uploading ("Select Files" button, as noted earlier), you can clear the list if you mistakenly selected the wrong photos, or you can "Upload File(s)" by click the circled button.
This will upload pictures directly to your thread or post in the Shortwing Pipers.org forum. There are other ways of uploading pictures through websites like photobucket or imgur which may appeal to ya'll that are members of multiple boards that I can cover later if anyone wants another step-by-step.
Please, ask any questions you have and I'll answer them as I can!
How about a tutorial on how to place the pictures in a thread where everyone can see them, and the different methods of placing them in a thread where they either appear as a thumbnail or full size picture. Possible?
Cameron's tutorial is the way I do it. Once the thumbnail is in the post double left click the thumbnail and select large and it will blow it up. IMG_0735.jpg
Just trying it out, the first picture is me trying to comprehend the process, I'm handicapped when it comes to driving a dell. I guess it depends on what you take the picture with and file type and aspect ratio as too how large your picture is. Thanks for the lesson, its much easier than the way I was doing it. Btw, I attached three pictures below.
