People Can No Longer See Pictures
« on: July 13, 2008, 12:22:17 PM »
I've linked some pictures from this board to other sites but people can't view them without first registering here. Can you fix this Mo?

Hmmm.

The pictures are served up via php scripts.  I'd have to take a look at the actual file and where they are stored to get a proper url for you that people might be able to use from the outside.  The board isn't meant as a picture hosting site though, that's why the functionality isn't there. 

Give me an example of pictures you'd like to link to.  I'll let you know.

That's cool, I made an account on photobucket, though I'm still trying to figure out how to link to pics I uploaded.

The attached image I was trying to link to was this one.

Same way you link to any other picture on a site. Use img tags.

You are assuming I'm having problems at the wrong end.

Hmm, then clarify.

What I got from this, was that you uploaded pics to photobucket and are trying to figure out how to link to them. The way in which you do this, on here, is to use img tags or just a regular link if you prefer.

However, I also read that as you having uploaded pics somewhere and currently trying to figure out how to get them on photobucket from that location, which is easily solved as photobucket has an option to upload images from a url.

Other than that, I guess I don't understand what you're trying to figure out.
