How do I get pictures in a post?

You can post any picture in a thread. There are two ways you can do it.

Directly into a thread:

You will need to host your photos in some other location on the internet. Upload it to a site that allows remote display of a picture using [img] tags. This might be personal webspace your internet provider has given you, space on your own website, or a picture hosting site that allows remote display, such a www.putfile.com, www.xs.to or www.photobucket.com. You may need to first crop and resize your photos to a workable size.
After you've uploaded your photo to an internet site, copy the link they give you.
Start a post go to the 'advanced mode' (click on the "Go Advanced" button under the text entry area).
Write the text for your post. Have your cursor where you want the photo inserted. Either, go to the tool bar right above the text entry window and click on the 'insert image' icon (mountain with sun). Paste in the url that you copied of your photo. Click okay. OR paste in the url in your text and surround it with image tags. [img]url[/img]

Note: Some sites, like www.geocities.com[font=Arial][font=Verdana], will not allow remote display of a picture. In this case, you can instead post a link to a page you have created using their software that includes the picture.[/font] [/font]

As a thumbnail pointing to an attachment to open:

You do not need to host it on the web for this method but you will have to size your picture down to 2.00 MB or less to upload them. Save your resized picture onto your hard drive.

Start a post and go to the 'advanced mode' (click on the "Go Advanced" button under the text entry area).

Scroll down. Do you see the "Manage Attachments" button? Click it. A window will open to add attachments. Browse to the location of your photo on your hard drive and select it. Then click upload. The window will tell you if your picture was accepted or not. If it wasn't you have to reduce the picture more. If it was then you are all set. Once you are done with your message hit Submit Reply and it will appear as a thumbnail at the bottom of your message.

spudster - Stop making things up. The reason your cage was deleted form the gallery is because it was a 1x3 cage. It did not meet the minimum size this site recommends so had no business being in the gallery. It had nothing to do with the resolution. All of this was explained in the notice you got through PM.

Stop making a big deal about all of this. Pictures get deleted out of the gallery every day and most people accept it and move on.

so...why is it that you delete my question and then post a public reply here ..now No one will get the answer to my question and no one knows what the heck you are talking about...perhaps you should have replied privatly to me.

I am the one that deleted your reply as I thought it was rediculous. You were disgruntled because you received an impaction because you uploaded a too small cage photo onto the gallery and then YOU decided to bring your impaction issue public which is something we would rather handle privately as is stated in at least 2 different threads on this forum.
