Instructions for including a picture in a post in other forums.Once you have uploaded pictures to the Picture Gallery, you can display them in-line within a post in any forum. In fact, I'd encourage you to write a trip report or something describing what your pictures show.
Note: You can also find instructions in the Message posting tips feature topic (above on the left). Within that topic, see the
Adding picture images section.
To include a picture from the Picture Gallery in your post:
1. You will need the UBBCode "location" of the picture from the gallery. The "location" is the string of characters following the "Medium" or "Full" label beneath the picture, starting with
[img... To copy the location, just click on the text. Your browser should highlight the text.
2. Copy the highlighted text: Right-click it and select "copy" from the menu.
3. In the message you are posting, where you want the picture to appear, right-click and select "paste" from the menu. You will see the location characters added to your post.
4. click the Preview Post or the Submit button to see how it looks.
Edit: Just a note to remind people: When videos are embedded in a post, you need to change the "Markup" below the text posting window to "Using HTML and UBBCode". But then, when you do that, the Preview does NOT work right -- it does not show the embedded video, but instead echos the HTML code (the <imbed... text copied for the video.) But try posting, and the HTML is interpreted properly.
