Picture posting question

[illflem]

When you post a picture in the forums does the TDR server store the picture or does it just link each viewer to the website the picture comes from?

The pics I have posted have been JPG files and have uploaded from my puter direct so is prolly stored at TDR web site. I believe it works either way but pic size is limited.

illflem,

you can post pictures at leat two ways I believe.



One is to upload the file to the TDR server, the other is to enclose the url for the pic with a pair of the little [ ]'s with "img" enclosed within first set, and "/img" contained within the second set. IOW, it should look something like this minus the quotation marks-

You can get the URL of most pic that are already posted by right clicking the mouse with the cursor placed over the image you wish to post, the left clicking "Properties" some variations of Windows will say "Copy Image Location", either will work. The latter just saves a step or two. Then to make things easier you can Left click, drag and highlight the URL from Properties, right click, select COPY, and place the cursor where you wish to insert the URL and right click and Select PASTE. Type in the aforementioned []'s with img & /img enclosed at the front and end and Voilla! You have posted an image that the message board will interpret as a picture. Hope I didn't confuse you too much. If you need more help just holler. I'd be honored!



When you do it right this is how it looks:
