This has puzzled me for some time. I'd like to post some screenshots within the thread and not simply have a link to an url or attachment.


Thanks.

If it's personal photos of your own, you have to upload them to a site and size them according to AVS rules. Save them as .jpg preferably.


Use the 'IMG' function in the 'post reply' area and paste over the URL and make sure it has a .jpg or.gif extension or add it.


That should do it.


If you want to embed a photo from another site, just right click on it, select 'properties', copy the URL with the .jpeg extension and paste it within the 'IMG' function.

What's the size limt? 640 x 480?

I don't think there is a size limit if someone else is hosting the image. It is kind to other people without high speed internet to compress the photos so they upload quicker. Plus it cuts down on your bandwidth for all the people who access it.


hit IMG

paste URL

click OK

Like this photo is 291000 bytes. Very large. It could be compressed and resized to make it much more usable for net users

Biggles, what is that screenshot you posted? Is that from your system? What equipment/screen are you using?

 

[Toxarch]

That's from his last vacation. It's a picture of his wife on the beach.

This is puzzling I tried to copy(then tried cut..) the image into the box that comes up after I HIT img -But it wont let me paste-the box is blanked out..


So I tried clicking on properties but it wont allow yout to highlight the name of the file -let alone copy it...there must be an easier way-else im doing something wrong........

Dan,


The shot is from a showing of HDNET's bikini contest. HD200 sat via DVI to a HT1000 on a high power 45*80 screen.

Heat,


Not sure why your having problems. I noticed your other post with a link to a URL with several screen shots.


To get the photo below, I selected the photo, then right clicked, select properties then highlighted and then copied the URL with the .jpg extension and then pasted the url after selecting the 'IMG" function button.

You can also just type the tags. it is [img ] URL [/img ] (minus the extra spaces) in the []

works for me http://www.winglake.com/images/home_...sney200318.jpg


make sure that you start highlghting at the begining of the URL (on the h), it is like a table, so if you are not in the right box it does not work
