New Rule For Posting Photos For Pattern Makers

<< < (2/2)

Hi Eieio, I tried putting a pic like you said but I can't see where it says insert pic or where you see mono lisa. I'm in crome and I coppied the URL like you said but when I start a new post I don't see mona lisa or an insert button. I'm I doing something wrong.

EIEIO:
I also use Chrome. When you reply or make a new posting, the screen shows (top to bottom) edit boxes for "Subject:", then "Message Icon:", then 3 rows of buttons. The top left button has a 'B' and makes text look Bold. The next button has an I on it and makes text into Italics.

The 2nd row leftmost button shows the tiny Mona Lisa and lets you insert a link to an image. The 3rd row has the smiley faces  :) ;) :D etc.

If you place your mouse cursor over the Mona Lisa button but don't click, a balloon pops up that reads "Insert Image". When you do click it, it will insert tags that read "{img}{/img}" (but in square brackets [..]). Paste the URL to your image between those tags.

If you don't click Mona Lisa but first paste the link into the edit box, you can select the link and then click the Insert Image button and the tags will be placed to surround the link. The picture below is linked that way:

what about possibly just restricting the size limits of posted pictures? I am on a couple sites that have this restriction in place. on average I can take a picture that is 1.82mb's and VERY quickly and easily resize it to 29.4kb ..this process is so easy and FREE to do that anyone can do it in the matter of a minute at the most..would that be a possible option ? it's just nice to see people post the picture that they are requesting and being able to see what these awesome pattern makers can do with it....it's a shame that it is messing up the site and I totally understand why this is being done....just thought this might be another possibility for people to still be able to do it..

thanks,

Thanks EIEIO, I found where you said they were. The Mona Lisa was so small; that I didn't notice it. LOL. I got it now. Thanks again. Ralph.

Oh my... I just did this very thing earlier today.  So sorry...

In my own defense, I'm really new here and didn't read the rules... my bad... and I know... that's a really lame excuse. :(
I actually posted the picture out of desperation as I promised my sister that I would make one for her.  My problem is that I cannot find the pattern I used to make the one in the picture.

You can be sure that I won't put any pictures up again.
