Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Hello ,
Im trying to post a pic in the forums, not having any luck.

Im resizing on pic nik.
How do I transfer the pic from my pics or pic nik to the image url on the post? Also when I click preview post should I see the actual pic under the message?
Im just getting the box with the x in it right now,and cant open it.
thanks alot Bob

It sounds like Pic Nik is merely a photo editor and not an upload gallery like kingsnake.com photo galleries or places like photo bucket? The photos need to be uploaded somewhere on the net first to post.

You cannot post a photo to the forums directly from your computer's hard drive. You must first upload the photo to the internet (many websites nowadays allow people to store their photos online). When you register to use our forums, you also receive 10 MB of free photo storage space in our Pet Hobbyist Photo Gallery. You use the same username/password to log in to the photo gallery as you would use to login to the forums. There are three ways to add a photo to your message:

* You can use our variation of HMTL code in the body of the message to add a photo. See the "Tools & Toys" for instructions. You will find the tools and toys and the lower right hand portion of the message box.
* You can type the URL for the photo in the "Image URL" section found at the bottom of the message screen.
* Upload a photo to the Pet Hobbyist Photo Gallery. Then when posting a message on the forum, select it from a drop down menu of the photos you have in the gallery. Using the CTRL key, you can select up to three photos. This method is the best option since some photo websites will block you from using your photos elsewhere on the internet.
