Attachments and Images
How do I attach a file to a post?

To attach a file to your post, you need to be using the main ‘New Post’ or ‘New Thread’ page and not ‘Quick Reply’. To use the main ‘New Post’ page, click the ‘Post Reply’ button in the relevant thread.

On this page, below the message box, you will find a button labelled ‘Manage Attachments’. Clicking this button will open a new window for uploading attachments. You can upload an attachment either from your computer or from another URL by using the appropriate box on this page. Alternatively you can click the Attachment Icon to open this page.

To upload a file from your computer, click the ‘Browse’ button and locate the file. To upload a file from another URL, enter the full URL for the file in the second box on this page. Once you have completed one of the boxes, click ‘Upload’.

Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window. You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.

What files types can I use? How large can attachments be?

In the attachment window you will find a list of the allowed file types and their maximum sizes. Files that are larger than these sizes will be rejected. There may also be an overall quota limit to the number of attachments you can post to the board.

How do I add an image to a post?

If you have uploaded an image as an attachment, you can click the arrow next to the ‘Attachment Icon’ and select it from the list. This will be inserted into your post and can be located where you want it displayed.

To include an image that is not uploaded as an attachment and is located on another website, you can do so by copying the full URL to the image, (not the page on which the image is located), and either pressing the ‘Insert Image’ icon or by typing after it, ensuring that you do not have any spaces before or after the URL of the image. You can insert pictures from your albums (?) in this way too.

l tried it with this photo from Tommy lvo & it works. Thanks for all your help.

See, if I disable the bold text, look at this mean dragster, its top speed was 458mph:

It doesn’t work with bold text.

Will it work with Webshots. FYI the beautiful girl is Ashley Force the 26-year-old daughter of drag racing icon John Force, she drives one of the world’s most powerful and challenging race cars, one capable of zero-to-100 miles per hour acceleration in less than one second. http://www.ashleyforce.com/

Sadly, or not, HE posted a photo of HIMself and various assorted RAF medics,somewhere in his youth, so I think the sex is confirmed as male…;)

Thats Nitromaniac’s image lifted from the hosted picture site linked below his or her signature.

The rest was full of endless shots of motor cars so I went for this one..

I have a faint hope that it is a picture of Nitromaniac herself, but I am not holding my breath.

Looks like someone’s boobed there……:diablo:

Those sunglasses don’t suit you, Moggy C.

You can link direct from the site you are using to host your images already, like this one:-

That’s correct, only B & W or colour.:)

You mustn’t paste them in bold and uppercase though.

same method, just a different forum, it’s easy once you get the hang of it.

either attach your pictures to a post, or use a website like photobucket, which has an upload function, once uploaded to there, copy the IMG link onto the post you want the pics in, and hey presto

If you’ve got an account with an image hosting company like Photobucket,you’ll get a link code with each photo that you can copy and paste.
