How to upload photos 101

Recommended Posts

OKAY!

For all those who just cant figure out how to upload photos, here is the step by step guide.

Im using www.tinypic.com for this example because its fast and easy.

There are also other photo upload websites such as imageshack, photobucket, imgur, etc.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step 1. Go to "www.tinypic.com"

Step 2. Click the "Choose File" button and select the image you want to upload from your computer.

Step 3. Click the "Default" button next to "Resize" and select either "Message Board (640x480)" or "15" Screen (800x600)

Step 4. Click "Upload Now" and follow the on screen instructions to verify that you are indeed human.

Step 5. After waiting a little while, your image would have been uploaded and a few links pop up (see screenshot below). Copy the whole line of "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards" (second link)

Step 6. Paste that link to your thread/reply

Step 7. Repeat as necessary to upload more photos.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another way you can upload photos is to find the image you want on google. Right click the image and select "Copy image URL". Then go to your thread/reply and type in

[ i m g ] *paste the link you just copied* [ / i m g ]

(without the spaces, capital letters or smallcase doesnt matter)

This will save you the trouble of saving a google image to your computer then uploading it to tinypic.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hope this wasnt too difficult...

That's all well and good, but why has the forum done this?

Is it due to an update we did or the server or wat??

If you highlight the words

Warning: date_default_timezone_get(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'Pacific/Auckland' for 'NZST/12.0/no DST' instead in /srv/bimmersport.co.nz/bimmersport.co.nz/www/htdocs/forums/init.php on line 269

And scroll the mouse down you can see the place to upload, still a pain
