Posting Pics With a URL
I am happy about posting pics from my computer onto the forum - I use Photo Bucket and it works find. But today I wanted to put up a pic direct from the web so the Img button above should have worked but it didn't.
I tried to post this http://www.performancewheels.com.au/nav ... E+12X5.jpg
So using the button above [img]http://image_url[/img] all I get is
So how do I post images from the web using the Img button
Thanks
Garry

Does this work? If it does then I just wrapped the url (ending .jpg) with

Re: Posting Pics With a URL
Ok - try the same process with this http://www.performancewheels.com.au/nav ... E+12X5.jpg and see if it works? Doesn't for me

Re: Posting Pics With a URL
Garry - you didn't attach the full url for that so I can't check. But I do know from other forum software that some urls - esp if the url doesn't end in .jpg - don't play nicely with the ing tags.

Re: Posting Pics With a URL
Using the "img" button in the full editor of the reply to thread sequence does not produce the picture because the web site owner has disabled the copy function.. You could take a screen print of it, save it as a *.jpg and then post it in the normal way.

Re: Posting Pics With a URL
Julian - I copied and pasted the url but it looks as if this site cut off the last bit of the url - the bit with the actual pic details and the .jpg so maybe that is why it will not display.
John - how do you know the copy function has been disabled?
Cheers

Re: Posting Pics With a URL
Just like I did above - you can check by clicking on the QUOTE button and then looking at the text. Maybe it is just a matter of some forms of url not playing ball with the ing tags?garrycol wrote:Yes - how did you do it?

Re: Posting Pics With a URL
The URL of the pic on the performance website (will not display here) and the URL of the Pic Roadkill that put up are different.
Roadkills URL http://www.performancewheels.com.au/upl ... 2012X5.jpg
The URL of the Pic on the Performance site
http://www.performancewheels.com.au/nav ... E+12X5.jpg
So I would ask again - what led to the url that works.

Re: Posting Pics With a URL
"http://www.performancewheels.com.au/upl ... 2012X5.jpg"
"http://www.performancewheels.com.au/nav ... E+12X5.jpg"
The top URL worked, for all it gave a huge picture.
The bottom URL did not work.
As far as I can tell, the top URL is a file that has been uploaded to the hosting companies server. The bottom URL is the same file referenced from the web page - the designer of the web site has disabled the copy and paste function of the pages the web site shows, which would explain why it does not show if referenced again by another web site.
Atleast. that is my take on why things are the way they are!

Aren't they just copies of the Minilites?
Nice though and would look great on a Haffy.

Re: Posting Pics With a URL
Garry,
The reason the image is huge and the website one isn't is that they have limited the size on the website. Basically, I just right clicked on the image you wanted, selected copy img url then came here, hit the img button and then pasted the url in between the two img tags.
Hope this helps,

Re: Posting Pics With a URL
Thats the difference - I copied the URL from the url address bar at the top of the browser where yours was the actual url of the pic - I will have to remember that.roadkill wrote:Garry,
