First off, you need to upload your pictures to a website or server. In order to link to a picture, the picture must have "online presence." You can either upload an image to your own personal website or to a site like photobucket.com, shutterfly.com, villagephotos.com, miamihost.net, myimgs.com, walagata.com, or some other image hosting website. You can do a google search for "Image Hosting."
THEN, after you have uploaded your photos, it's time to POST them HERE!!
Just copy and paste this code -- and REPLACE THE "www.imagehostingservice.com/imagedirectory/imagename.jpg" with the actual property info for your picture. You can find this by right-clicking on the picture (from the hosting service website) and click on properties. There, the url to the image will be displayed.
And there you have it, a picture posted on Girlmom!!!
This used to work, just trying it out....

actually with this forum its even easier.
see that little icon right above the text (when you are posting) that says Img?
click that at the start of your link:
[img] then fill this area with your pic location (ex: www.picsite.com) then click the little Img again [/img]
should work that way :)
also, be sure your hosting site allows you to post on other forums. some are locked, which means that you won't be able to post the pic with a working link.
that should all work
OMG!! I finally understand... now I just have to work on it!! LOL! !Thanks@!!! :) :) :D

Kell- your doing it right but you just gotta put a back slash before the img...like this: [/img] then your picture code......then [/img] again the origonal poster forgot to add that.......someone had to tell me that tooo :0) good luck posting
SISICA- OOMG, I AM SOOO SORRY! I DIDN'T SEE THAT YOU DID HAVE THE BACK SLASH! I'M SOOOOO SORRY! AND BY THE WAY FOLKS....LOL....THE BACK SLADH ONLY GOES AT THE LAST [/IMG] NOT THE FIRST ONE :0) LIKE I SAID IN MY LAST POST. SORRY GIRL!

Nope, doesn't work. Kell put the slash before the last IMG on a couple of her posts on page 1. I would say maybe it's a prob with the new forum, rather than with her picture or URL. I'm sure it takes a few days to work out all the kinks when you switch to a new system.
Lemme try posting another photo, and we'll see if it's possible.
Well, I guess it works... (that's one of my kitties, BTW. Her name's Rizo. Ain't she purdy?) :wink: .
I'm not sure what the problem is then with Kel's photo... Help, mods! LOL. :?:
maybe it's because it's a .bmp file and not a .jpeg or a .gif file?
thats what i was wondering!! I am going to try to make it a jpg file!! Thanks emily!
So I can get them to work but they are HUGE! How do we resize them to not kill dialup people?
testing....
