Nope. Go to your photobucket account, put your cursor over the picture you want to post. A box will "drop down" with four selections. Select the HTML box and copy, then paste into your post here. You'll have to have both windows open.

You'll just get text and numbers but when you hit preview, you'll see the picture.

did that make sense?

Thanks Annie, I'm going to give it a shot! I may be back asking you questions. I would have called you or emailed but I don't have numbers or addresses.

Karen, I'm leaving here for the farm in about two minutes, the storm last night left some fallen branches and I have to check the fence. We had winds of 75 MPH here and I think it was worse down by you. At least I didn't lose power here in town....

Email is annie1992@yahoo dot com, I don't think I'll post my phone number here, LOL, but email me and I'll be glad to give you work or home or both!

Annie

It didn't work Annie. I put my curser over the picture and there is no drop down box. Nothing happens. What now?

lakemayor, when you put the cursor on the picture in photobucket a drop down box "should" appear.

On My screen the first thing under the picture is an empty box- click on the empty box. A check mark will be in the box now.

Scroll down to the bottom of your photo bucket page and on the right will be four blue boxes. Click on the one that says "generate HMTL and IMG code.

This will take you to another page of boxes with codes inside them. left click on the second box, the code will be highlighted in blue, then right click- a box will open -select copy.

Then go to your forum post and left click, this will open a small box -select paste. Your post will contain the code.

scroll down your post and select preview message. Your picture should show up then.

This is how I do it, hope it helps!

AB, we had a heck of a storm here too; hope your damage is minimal.

Lakemayor, go to your Photobucket account. Place your mouse over your chosen image. Left-click on it. The photo will pop up, with four selections appearing on the left side of the image.
Left-click on Direct Link until the box is highlighted and the word "Copied" appears.

Start a new thread here. To display your photo, Right-Click in the message box to paste the url.

Place the URL of your image within the following code, (leave a space between IMG and SRC), like this:

Thanks to all of you!!! I love you people. I did it. It should be coming through now.

Karen

Hooray, it worked! Great pictures, Karen.

Sol, I had some tree branches down on the fence line, Dave cut them up with the chain saw for me and Amanda and I dragged them out of the way. The animals were all safely contained, they didn't even try to escape. I guess they must like it where they are, LOL.

Lots of people still without power, though, and the hail might have nicked up the pumpkins and peppers, but all in all, the damage was pretty minimal. Somehow that first storm of fall always catches me by surprise, a preview of what the Witch of November will do.
