downloading/uploading/reloading

#1 Post by FMCN »

bOogaloo, still a computer moron and still haven't managed to upload/download/reload an image to this site. Followed previous advice, but alas to no avail. Just keeps timing out. Can I download from my computer or do I have to save files to somewhere ???

Get yourself an account at [url]http://www.photobucket.com[/url] Once you get this account you will be able to upload images from your PC to this server. You can then link from this server to here. :D Sounds simple and it is after a few tries.

You will need to have 2 internet explorer windows open. One with the sea angling ireland post that you are trying to post the images into and the photobucket site.

On the photobucket site there are 3 links for each image.

You want the text in the "Img:" box.... Just select the text... right click on the selected text with you mouse and select copy. Now jump to your SAI web page and copy the text into your post. Your image should become visable after you submit the post.

The reason you have to do this is that the SAI site will not store your images unless in you personal album. You can link to images stored on another server in each post using the method above. If you have any hassles let me know.
