No idea how to get them to show up properly.
AVForums puts this site to shame in regards to posting pictures :sad:

You need image tags around the web addresses to get  them to show as pics

Still the suspense of clicking on the links works well!!!

That looks superb. Love the colour, great car. :afro:

Ok, I give up.
How did you get these to appear as actual images in your post p3asa ?

Sorry the image tags I showed in my post just came up as a box with a ? in it!
http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=85911.0 have a scan through that.
Basically you need the photo web address and boxes with [IMG] and [  /IMG   ] in them, one either side of the image address. Excuse the big gaps in the second box but it stops the big ? thing.
It takes a bit of practice but becomes second nature after a while.

If you are using Flckr you need to post the BBCode into your post to get them to show up.  You can only access the BBCode via full website not the mobile version.  When you are in your photostream and select a photo, there is a sweeping arrow in the bottom right corner.  Click on that and a box comes up and along the top are some choices - select the last one which is BBCode, select the link and copy, the paste into your post.

Someone told me about the site for quick uploads and you can do multiple ones at a time. 

http://postimage.org

You upload straight from your device's photos and tick family safe, leave the size option. Once uploaded you get a choice of links. Pick Hotlink for forums 1 and copy the link or multiple links and paste into your post.  Works a treat and saves a shed load of time.


Car looks awesome Kalimon.  :cool:  Gorgeous colour and nice job on the snow foaming.  :smiley:

Bec I think I'm reasonably computer literate and had a go at the Flickr last year some time and it totally bamboozled me  :grin:
I'm jealous you can work it perfectly. I do prefer the layout of pictures etc on it but just can't seem to post links from it.

Thanks Rebecca, I'm well pleased with the :laugh: car and the snow foam lance.
News travels fast though, my Dad has just been round to borrow my brand new pressure washer. I had to say yes but it was through gritted teeth
