Posting photos to answers

Question

I am new to the site, but I have tried to do some research to find this answer on my own. Following the directions, I have been unsuccessful at posting photos to my answers in the forum. I created an account on PhotoBucket, copied the link, and posted it with my answer... no photo...

Can someone please dumb this down for me?

Thank you for your help!

Answer 1

Hi Misty,

There is a link in the palabra del dia each week just under the picture that reads: "How to post a picture." It will give you the details plus more things you can do with your posts. Pretty cool, eh?

Here it is; How to post a picture

Great idea. - rogspax, Jan 31, 2013

Thanks, Rac. I have noticed that and read it. But for some reason, I can't get it to work. - Misty879, Jan 31, 2013

It worked on this posting, but not on the answers when I try to post for the palabra del dia. - Misty879, Jan 31, 2013

Answer 2

Is there a chance sometimes you´re doubling down on the http://, and other times properly getting just one?

Thank you Rog. I have tried it by deleting the blue http:// and without deleting it. I assumed that since it was blue that it would automatically delete when I pasted the link over it. - Misty879, Jan 31, 2013

Answer 3

Not sure off the top of my head, but how about attempting to post one in this thread, as another answer, and leaving it, whether it works or not, and maybe we can examine it and-or get a better idea of what might me amiss. Give it a whirl. Also, in photo bucket, are you clicking on the box called ¨direct link¨?

Buena suerte.

Ok. I did it here and it worked. I went to the actual answer I was trying to add a photo to and tried there, same thing... no photo. - Misty879, Jan 31, 2013

Your photo is up now, Misty. I edited it. - rac1, Jan 31, 2013

Answer 4

Thank you Rogspax. I am using the Direct Link.

Oh my goodness... I did the EXACT same thing that I have been trying every single time. I don't get it!!! - Misty879, Jan 31, 2013
