Here ya go. On the forums I post multiple pics with captions underneath them all the time like you mentioned. It's as easy as pie once you get the hang of doing it a few times.


Posting pics/mutiple pics

The best way is to go create a totally FREE account with a photo host site such as photobucket. This will only take a couple minutes to do, and you can store MANY gigabytes of photos there.
There are a few different ways to post photos, or multiple photos from photobucket, but the absolute EASIEST way is to simply go to your album once you create one there, then when you put your cursor on any photo there, you will see a drop-down menu come down underneath it. go down and "left click" on the bottom box marked "IMG Code", then just simply go into the normal text field, right click and paste it in the text field on the forum where you would normally do all the typing.

It will look like a bunch of weird text jargon, but when you hit the "post message" button....BINGO!, there it is.

You can leave little spaces in between pics with your "enter" key on the keyboard to type in captions etc.. as well.

You can do this with as many pics as you want, or of any size, but. They re-did their site format, and somewhere on there you can even limit all the phots to better fit 15" monitors, 16" moitors, etc.... Generally speaking, if the photos are about 1000 x 750 or smaller, they are more easily viewed by people so they don'y have to scroll around looking at HUGE photos that are much larger than the monitor.

All the image bracket nonsense is all done for you when you do it like I mentioned, it is as easy as pie really.

One suggestion though. To prevent any mistakes from actually being posted, I strongly suggest that you check things out and click the "Preview Message" button to see exactly how it will look to the forum viewers, then you can save the embarrassment of posting screw-up's multiple times like so many do..LOL!


Good luck!
