So putting the html into the body of the post does not work any longer? What did you do...

...to get the photo to show?

I also copied the URL from photobucket and put it into the "image URL" box, and nothing happened.

Thanks,

MIchael

there is instructions for this somewhere. if someone can find it I'll post it in to announcements

or I'll find it later tonight. Essentially though any link will start with a protocol like "http://" and then any image would need to end in an image file extension like .jpg or .png

so from your example the useful part would be:

It is here Paul

I went there and followed the instructions but could not get a photo to post no matter what I tried.

thanks. there was a more recent discussion

for the "Image URL" you want to use the "Direct" link option from the Photobucket choices

Here is Maria's post with the directions:

We can't embed photos in text body anymore smileys/frown.gif

Copy from photobucket the link marked "Direct" and paste it into the Image URL link box beneath where you put the main text of your post (aka beneath this part).

So if we want to post several photos they'd need to be in individual postings.

FYI -- to get editing menu/etc in PB I now have to hover over the photo for it to show up.

THis should probably be removed and replaced with up-to-date instructions.
