Is there a tutorial regarding how to post pictures?
-
If there is let me know please been trying since last June !
-
This is from the tradgang search in the photography section.

If you search how to post photos with photobucket, you can find video of the process.
I found this one with a down-under accent.

It's very simple to do. Post your pic to photobucket first and then copy the IMG and paste it in your thread.
All done.

Apparently I'm photo posting challenged. I just started trying to add a pic and it's giving me fits.
-
I like using IMGUR. Seems easier to me and fewer pop ups. I have used photobucket as well.
With imgur just upload your pics. Then copy the "bbcode", it's one of a few options on a drop down menu,and drop it in your message. Done.
Once you figure out either one it's pretty easy.
Remember you cannot do it directly from your phone or computer on Trad Gang.
-
It would be a lot better if you could just post them from your computer.
-
So if I have it done correctly should I be able to see the pic when I preview my post or will it just show the code?
-
I have never been able to do it???? I wish you could just access your photos from the tradgang site...
-
Where are your pictures posted? Do you have them on a site or just your computer
-
I created an account with photobucket today.
-
Go by what Wingnut posted and you won't have any trouble. It is really very simple, just takes a little time.
-
JW. Can you send me a link to your ohotobucket or a pic you want to post and I'll walk you through it. [email protected]
-
JW Yes, you should be able to see the picture when you preview your post.
-
When it comes to doing something on computers and the first sentence from a poster starts with something like, "It's very simple" or "It's really easy" it's time for me to move on! :confused: :eek: :scared:
-
I figured out the photobucket process. Thanks!

OK...There are a couple ways to do it in Photobucket but we will use the one mentioned above.
1st....click on the picture you want to post and get it to look like ....
THIS...(different pic of course).
(http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q694/SKITCH_1/screen%20shot%20full_zpsaa5coigk.jpg) (http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/SKITCH_1/media/screen%20shot%20full_zpsaa5coigk.jpg.html)
Once there look to the right and you will see the 4 box stack labeled "SHARE THIS PHOTO" with the following lables..."Email & IM", "Direct", "HTML" and "IMG"....from top to bottom on the left.
Looks like THIS!
(http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q694/SKITCH_1/capture%20of%20box_zpsgduwdxjb.jpg) (http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/SKITCH_1/media/capture%20of%20box_zpsgduwdxjb.jpg.html)
You want to work with the "IMG" portion of this box. Put your cursor on THAT BOX and click it. It will quickly say "copied". DO NOT right click and "copy" just a simple regular left click should do it.
Then...go to your post box for Trad Gang...a different screen. Put your cursor in the MESSAGE BOX ..RIGHT click and then click PASTE! You're done. You will see the code post into the box...not the picture.
WILL LOOK LIKE THIS!!

Then write what you want to post above or below the picture...as seen above....and post it.
Once you've done that...you should get THIS. (your picture of course.)

SCORE!!!!! Skitch you are officially "The Man" for the rest of the day. Thanks to your help I found what my problem was. I wasn't on the full site since I'm using an iPhone. If you're not on the full site the IMG code isn't an option.

Just a test

almost there.

So Close
Sancoon, your posted hyperlink took me to your picture in PhotoBucket. To the Right of the picture are the 4 cells. Left click on the bottom IMG cell and you should get the yellow copy message. Next - back to the tradgang message post box, Right click to paste img link. There should be a snowy a Rabbit hunting pic.

I tried posting from Imgur and I can't get it to work. I copy the link in imgur to the reply box under images but the link never works. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong ?

Yes! You have to find the drop down menu or boxes with the different codes in them. Then copy the " Bb code" it might say "message boards or forums". Once copied paste into your trad gang post and you should be good to go. Let me know if that helps.
By the way...you cannot do it from an iPhone if using their mobile site.
-
Guys, TradGang is a stock forum platform. The TG folks can't alter the way it works. If they could believe me they would have simplified the post process a long time ago.
-
I have been using my iPad so I guess that's why I can't get the pics to post. I will try my laptop. Thanks for the info.

Ok - Posting pictures on Tradgang is super difficult.

Seriously Troy?
Remember this?

"EXPECT to be respected". That's what keeps this place what it is. Not trying to preach but damn! The guy was only saying that for some that don't use computers every day...figuring some of this stuff out can be difficult. I'm sure many of the retired folk and others these days have a hard time navigating. We should be happy to point out a few tips to help out. Isn't that basically what Trad Gang is to begin with. Experienced Trad guys telling stories and talking trad and every now and the (quite often actually) helping out those that are trying to master something you love and know a little more about! If I saw you at the range and asked you a question about my form or release would you tell me to " take a hike"?
Please...lets try to help each other out. I for one love to see what the older guys bring to the campfire and would Love to see as many pictures as they can post. Especially those of days gone by.
Ok. Off the soap box now. Im sure this won't last long!

I love Tradgang and get on here almost daily but I have gave up on trying to post pics...My wife and I sat down one eve a year or two ago and figured it out but it is just way too much trouble for me. I guess I don't understand how I can put a pic on FB with one hand while driving down the road but have to jump through so many hoops to post here?...Tradgang rocks anyway keep up the good work guys.
-
Skitch, my photo bucket page is different than your example. Do you use a subscribe to service they offer? I have had limited luck with posting pics here. Now I get a message saying I have to move image to another album. So looks like an issue with PB for me.
-
Hmmm. I have a normal free account. Those are from my laptop. If you click on be photo it should give you those code options somewhere on the page. Play with it a bit.

This is a test.
