How to attach jpeg to post?

Danica

If you have the pictures on your FB page or profile, just share them via link here (you have to have them set to "public" there in order for people outside FB & your friends list can see them).

Select & copy the full ULR for the picture

it's the sequence of letters and numbers starting with www.facebook.com... in your browser when you open the particular picture.

Paste that sequence here in the "post body" (just as you would write any text when you write a reply on a forum)
Select this sequence when added here and click on the URL button above (see buttons under the subject name in the "post a reply" window); now this sequence will have marks on both its ends - it becomes a direct link to your content. It's not immediately visible as a picture on the forum, but it's easily accessible and it's a practical solution regarding saving the forums space and not having to worry weather/when it will be deleted from some hosting site.

I just did that with my pictures in the Thelemic Tefilah thread:

create a photobucket account. It's free. It's forever (allegedly). Upload to them, let them pay for the storage. Put that URL between the IMG tags. Very simple.

For example

Photobucket is free and lets you hotlink?

Good to know.

OK. Now I will try it with photobucket.

This is my drawing of Heru-Ra-Ha

^ No that didn't work. I put the URL for my photobucket between the Img things.
Why did it work for you, Takamba, and not for me?

Here's the URL
337.photobucket.com/user/TamaraTornado/media/HeruRaHa.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0

Again, your URL doesn't end in .jpg. U seem to be pasting the link to the Web page that displays your picture, not the address fo the picture file itself.

I put the URL between the IMG tags as Takamba mentioned.

OK, I am reading Jim's instructions again.
Another try for my drawing of Heru-Ra-Ha

^ WOO-HOO! SUCCESS!

Takamba

Yes, in Photobucket you click the image to obtain it's direct page for you, then you click the "Direct HTML" code button to copy the correct url to use. You figured it out! Yay!

Whoops. I didn't even think about space I was taking up on Jim's servers when I uploaded my homemade Zelator and Practicus "hood ornaments" a while back. I'll go back and point my post at my own server. Sorry about that!
