Posting Pictures - A How To

I have been having trouble posting from photobucket.  Let's see how this works.......................
 

Oh..OK!

So what's the story behind the burger???

It was the first pic I came across on Photobucket.  The burger picture is from Holly Eats report on Dilly's Corner.  It is one of my favorite burgers.

I like Photobucket.com for its simplicity in managing files. Most of my current point and shoot camera photos are 6 megapixel, 2560 x 1920 pixel size in my iPhoto libraries. Obviously they are too big for posting in a message board so I export them out of iPhoto resized to 640 x 480 for posting and then upload them to Photobucket.com. Once uploaded

This is very interesting let me try it!
 

 
 

Another photo service to try is Google.  They have a drag & drop interface that makes quickly adding an image very easy.  As long as you already have a Google account just select more from the internal menu bar:

 
then choose Photos on the drop down:

 
from there select upload pictures and follow the instructions.

PS.  I was trying to insert some images I found on the web earlier today, but the forum would only display in the preview photos from my Google acct., not from elsewhere on the web.  I'm guessing this is to avoid copyright issues?  Just curious.
Ended up copying the web image and inserting into my google photos.

To RESIZE photo's using WINDOWS, every copy of Windows has built in MS-PAINT...
 
Click  START > PROGRAMS > ACCESSORIES > PAINT
 
Navigate to the image you want to resize and load it, then click on IMAGE, then Stretch / Skew ...  the value boxes are at 100% and the first one is already highlighted...what I usually do is simply key in:  25   TAB   25   ENTER   and this will produce a picture 25% the original size...
 
For my Canon pocket camera I start with 25%, and for my Canon SLR I start at 20%...

Ok I am missing some step.  When you hit the new insert/edit button do you need to put the img there then the URL then img again? In the box?

the suffix one has to be [/img] with the /.

Davydd,
Do you put [img][/img] in the message or in the popup for image URL?  I have tried it both ways.  Using html, url, bbc code with no luck.  Using the html code I actually see a picture then go to post and picture disappears leaving the img/img.

Thanks Davydd.  I actually did it.  I will try to put up instructions for later from iphone to Roadfood.com for Acer.  It is in total about 4 steps.   I was making it harder then it actually was.
Thanks for your help.  I really appreciate it.
