RWGadmin 13 Posted November 18, 2008 For reasons of disk space and bandwidth, this forum does not permit the uploading of Avatars or attachments to posts. You can, of course, still link an avatar to your profile and post pictures of your watches - they will just need to be posted elsewhere. Most members recommend Imageshack or Photobucket for photo hosting. You can also use your own webspace if you have it. Once you have uploaded your photo or avatar to your webspace or photo host, display the full version of the image in your web browser and select the full address in the address bar. It will look something like: http:///img22.imageshack.us/img22/1234/yourimage.jpg. Hit control-C to copy that address to your clipboard If you're adding an avatar (which needs to be no larger than 150x150 pix), then go to your control panel, click "Edit Avatar Settings" and paste the address into the "Enter a URL to an online avatar image" box. If, however, you're adding an image to a post: Click on the "new post" button to go to the posting dialog here at RWG. On the toolbar immediately below the "Fonts" dropdown you will see a small button with an image that looks a bit like a landscape. Hovering your mouse over that image will bring up a tooltip that says "Insert Image." Click on that button and paste the address for your image into the resulting dialog. Click okay, and you're done! You can also post in-line YouTube videos within your regular forum posts. To do so, find your YouTube video and copy the bit after the ''+" sign from the URL to your clipboard (CNTRL-C). Click the 'Insert: YouTube' button to the left of the posting dialog and paste the YouTube video ID you just copied into the resulting popup. Bingo! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
