learning to post pics....pls ignore this post

well that worked then.....

keep trying Abbi! I want to see your garden

Abbi, how is the picture posting going as Ripley has said garden pictures please. I could send the way I do it from this forum. Others could send ways that they send from programs like "photobucket" The only thing I am working on is multiple pictures. Simon might see this and help us both at the same time, Regards David.

Hi,
I've never managed to post a picture on this forum either. It's all too hard.

I have to say... I really do not know why people find it so hard to post an image here... so I have to ask also... where are you having trouble? I have tried to make the tutorial (here: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]), as simple as I can make it and looking at the instructions... I think it is really pretty simple (if it had indeed been read at all... it is a sticky at the top of the rose gallery forum). There is really only three steps:

1. Click the icon (looks like this: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]) and upload the image.
2. Wait till it uploads and copy the code.
3. Paste the code in the new post you are writing.

The steps, with pictures, are included in the tutorial.

That's it. If anyone is really stuck then please PM me and I'll send you my phone number (Abbi.. .you should still have it.. woudl be great to catch up again too).

I will have a look now and see if I can make the tutorial even easier to follow. It will apear over the top of the previous tutorial.

Testing testing

The tutorial has been modified to a series of 7 image. Use the tutorial link above to view it.

Hi,
I hate to say it, but Step 5 doesn't happen. I can copy it but there's nowhere to paste it.
The box where I'm supposed to paste it doesn't come up.

If you can't see the box but can copy the code then you can enter it all manually (very easily and for me, more quickly), by typing this:

Code:

[img]press control-v here[/img]

Simon I got it copied, and pasted the code successfully and it added an image of sorts, but it was just grey, black and red blocky pixels, not a real photo.

anyways I'll keep trying. thank you for your patience.

I did i did it I did it.......

Abbi!!!

BTW I am having trouble deciding what is more beautiful...the roses or that view!?! Hmmmm who am I kidding? The roses win...but only just! LOL

looks like you've found yourself a beautiful spot down there Abbi. When I come down to see Bill and Dee this year sometime I am definately going to have to drop in and say hi and bring you down some more plants How's your iris going... I'm about to pull about 30 of mine up and reposition them... all others are doing amazingly well. Lovely photos too

Knew you could Barbara

Well done Barbara...a night of successes

Abbi,

My iris are going well. still stacks that i can't identify until they flower, but i've bought lots more since i've been here too.

You and your delightful family are more than welcome to visit anytime, Simon.

this took a lot of trouble and now I don't remember how I did it.

Good thing you are a quick learner then Dee

And an even quicker forgetter.
