Hi computer numpty here, I have tried to upload photos on to my blog.  Resize them so they would be allowed to go on but when they are uploaded the BBC doesn't open.  Here is one of them to show you what it does.



Is there anything else I have to do to the image before uploading so it is able be viewed?

Hiya don't know if you know this already but if the photo's are off yr pc (and not the net) then you need to first upload them to a website such as image shack (i think this is what most people here use) otherwise if you cant for some reason get image shack pm me and i will direct you to one that i use.

Hi MoonGoddess

There are two steps involved for integrating graphics to a blog.  I will discuss the method I use:

1.  Upload to the internet.

This assumes your graphics are already on your PC from your camera.  Go to: http://www.imageshack.us/
and click browse.  Navigate through the explorer like options to find your image,  then click on the image file (so it is highlighted) then click open.  When you're back at the imageshack page click the Host it! button.

You will get a lot of code on the next page.  You want to use the text in Direct Link to Image.  Highlight the text in there and press CTRL and C at the same time.

2.  Go to your blog, and then do a CTRL and V at the same time.  For the example I just did, this is what is pasted in (your image name will be different, of course):

To prepare it for use in the blog you have to put [img] before it and [/img] after it, like so.

[img] http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/8499/thorr1yq7.jpg [/img]

I have spaces between [img], [/img] and the filename.  That will make the text show up on screen and not as the actual image I want to display.  If I remove the spaces, then [img] http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/8499/thorr1yq7.jpg [/img]

becomes

or use an [img][/img] code from photobucket.com

WOW!!! Thats an awesome pic Earl, when we have moved (fully) into our new house i want pic like that on my walls
