How do I post pictures within the body of my ride report ???

Post by SIF »

In anticipation of finally writing my Kenya ride report can someone explain, to a technophobe, how I can post my report with writing to accompany each picture ? Thanks...

Well Sif I use a programme called Photobucket, you can google it then download it to your pc and/or phone, set up a free account then upload pictures from either your phone or pc to it, then in the library section if you highlight and copy the 'img code' then paste it into your post on here we can see the pics! (its easy once you know how) but trying to explain the process to a novice sounds really complicated lol.... :woohoo:

good luck with it (thumbs)

Part 2 ..... Trick is to make sure your curser is in the correct place in your report when you hit "insert" (thumbs)

Or you could do what I do . . . . . do the write up as a word document, marking spaces where you want photo's to go in with a line space.
Upload the photo's you want too insert into a photo hosting site, such as photo bucket. Once thats done, open up each photo and copy an image link for the photo from the hosting site and paste it into the appropriate space in your document.

And then save it, then copy it (control + C), open up a new thread on the web page /site of your choice, such as ABR, and then just paste (control + V) the whole thing onto the thread you have just created.
