chris_stolz Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 How do I make it so that people can see these images when they read the post? I RTFM, followed the instructions etc and it tells me to do this: and no photo appears. chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markwebster Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Chris, the link inside your image tags leads to an html page that shows an image, not the image itself. your http address must lead directly to a web page address that ends with a ".jpg" extension like this: http://www.somewebpage.com/climbing.jpg Picasa web might not allow you to show images outside of picasa in a forum like this...though I could be wrong. I tried to find a way to do it by viewing the source code of your picasa page using your address and gave up. The images are obviously there on their server, I'm just not sure how to make them show directly as an http: address without being part of the webpage. You are sort of taking advantage of their free hosting by doing it, which is probably why they don't make it easy. Another free hosting service may allow it if picasa doesn't. I have my own domain name so it's easy for me. I checked out your pictures...the nude climbing was entertaining...ouch! Gotta love JT!

TrogdortheBurninator Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 picasaweb is a pain in the ass to use on forums, but it works. on the right side of the photo screen it should say "link to this photo" change the size to something useful like 800 pixels cut and paste the part where it says embed HTML it should look like this delete everything except the address following src=" i.e. http://lh4.google.com/Jason.Killgore/R2amU5M-TDI/AAAAAAAAByo/OaNz5MlNVLM/s800/IMG_3181.JPG embed that address in the tags hope this helps. If cc.com would accept html, you could use the code directly, but it doesnt (or I havent figured it out) so you have to improvise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
