How do I upload pics

[Catja]

Hi how do I upload pics onto the forum. I can't see a button for uploading?

I usually upload mine onto Photobucket and resize them. Then Right click on IMG code.
When you are posting your message you will see an 'Img' button underneath the Subject Heading, click on that, right click and paste your photo and if you look on preview it should be there.

You cannot upload them directly. You need to register with a photo hosting site and upload your photos to that. Like Basia we use photobucket which is free. Once you have uploaded them you can either post them as a link or copy by clicking on the second box under the pic which will copy the link to the clipboard. Go to your hamstercentral post and type [img]then%20paste%20the%20copied%20link%20by%20right%20 clicking%20and%20paste%20then%20immediatly%20after %20this%20put[/img]
Your picture should then show on the forum. It is best resized to around 600pixels wide or it can be too large for the screen. If you have a photo editing program you can resize it before uploading to photobucket and it will load quicker.
If you have any problems attach it to an e mail and send it to me and I will put it up for you.
