How the heck do you add links and pics in here?

Sideplate · November 10, 2003 9:49AM

I'm sure there must have been a post in the past showing the correct way to add links and pictures on this forum, but I can't find one. Could someone please guide me in the right direction so I can finally figure out how this un-userfriendly thing works. I'm not exactly a novice computer user, but I'll be darned if I can figure out what this software wants. If there has not been a previous post on this subject, please, one of you pros give me a hand. I'm sure there are others that could use the help also.

If the picture is on the web, when you are posting, the forth icon from the left, the picture frame is how to link. Type in the address of the picture. Be sure to use " http://www. " in the address.

for pics on the web, right-click on the picture, then go to properties (on the bottom). then it will show the link for the URL, and just copy paste it on here using the Image button (the color picture of something that resembles a mountain, near the Bold and Underline buttons).

Is this how you do it???

goodriddance189 · November 10, 2003 10:27AM

you passed the test with flying colors

The "click to enlarge" on the left of your scan does not seem to work. You must have done something wrong.

Wayne,

I seriously considered putting her in the sig line, since she was my first ever image. But, low and behold, my wife just happened to be reading over my shoulder and I have been "advised" that the Sports Illustrated swimsuit models are no longer a part of my collecting hobbie. But, the good news is, she promised to listen the next time I get a PSA 10 and even give a big "WHOOOOOPIE". So, I guess all is good .

Does anyone know how to load a new icon? I think they can only be added on the 15th of each month, but I've yet to figure out how to do it. Any help?

Griffins:
On the 15th Login and go to profile
At the very bottom of the page there will be an upload box that is only there 1 day a month.

Griffins · November 11, 2003 6:21AM

thanks! 4 days to ditch this logo!

Sideplate - I'm blind, could you put up the brail version?

Ullr · November 11, 2003 6:36AM

Me too.
I uploaded my Jerry Garcia icon last month. It looked great before, but I had to shrink it to fit the 100x100 limit for these boards, and it got kinda muddy.

<< <i>The "click to enlarge" on the left of your scan does not seem to work >>

here is the link to the "enlarged" version link(which is only longer, not closer)

but here is another that you might like better!

Peter,

I heard she is going to be at the Philly show handing out free cards. Don't tell my wife, she thinks I'm going to Philly on business!

Griffins · November 12, 2003 12:56AM

You know, a few weeks ago Joe and Carol said this forum really needed to get back on track. I definitely like the direction its taking! Now where is tipem's teenage girl slumber party thread?

Note to self- don't drink Koolaid or like any stamps at Ullr's house.

Ullr,
Don't sweat the icon, Jerry always looked a little fuzzy back in the day

Ullr · November 12, 2003 9:12PM

Griffins:
I am not positive about this but I recall reading once that if the 15th falls on a weekend then the upload day will be on Friday. The 15th is SATURDAY. You might want to check tommorrow between 9-5 PST.

How the heck do you add links and pics in here?
