Photo's

Hi All,<br>I have been trying to post a picture with my profile and can't seem to get the job done. ??? Is there a trick to this or is it just that &quot;you have to be smarter than the computer&quot;? <br><br>Thanks<br>Grampaw Bill

Re:Photo's

If you want it in your 'profile,' I believe you will need to upload it to the gallery (or your own website) first. Then in your profile where it says: &quot;I have my own pic:&quot; put a check in the box and type in the URL to the pic.

example of mine:

If you want it in your signature, follow Ed's instructions! ;D

By doing the bracketts with the &quot;img&quot; in them, is this telling the computer to transfer the image from the desktop? I scanned the pic and placed it on my desktop and then tried to transfer it to DTR profile. Also, do you know if we can copy &amp; paste the pic?????<br>Thanks Again<br>Grampaw Bill

Re:Photo's

Try building an album and uploading the pics into the member photos section at the top of this page, then link to it.
That's what I did.
Believe me...if I can figure it out anyone can. .
Post back if there's a problem and one of these &quot;computer literate&quot; folks will give us a hand figuring it out. ;D

As a plus, we're doing a &quot;Truck of the Month&quot; now and the winner is picked from the Member's Photos section.

Re:Photo's

creating an album is easy:

click on &quot;members photos&quot;
scroll down to the &quot;create new album&quot; section
give it a &quot;title&quot; &amp; &quot;description&quot;
hit the &quot;create album&quot; button

uploading a picture

click on &quot;upload picture&quot;
next to &quot;album&quot; select your album name
click &quot;browse&quot; to select the picture from your hard drive
give it a &quot;title&quot; &amp; &quot;description&quot;
click &quot;add picture&quot;

Repeat &quot;uploading a picture&quot; section for each pic... ;D


ohhh yeah, you'll end up with something like this: (right click on the pic and check it's properties)

https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/..._tp3500fl1.jpg

you can link that to your signature with the [img] or use the http:// in your profile like my above example... ;D Have fun!

Tony

Re:Photo's

It would still take me a month and a half to figure it out so I'll just skip it.

Re:Photo's

hmmmmmmm deja-vu ;D
It's just like adding a link just add &quot;img&quot; and &quot;/img&quot; in the brackets before and after, instead of &quot;url&quot; and &quot;/url&quot;.

edit: OOOps are you talking about creating an album?
