HOW TO: Adding images to your posts
« on: January 02, 2008, 11:14:06 PM »
Adding images to your posts

Images can be added to board posts by using the attachment options at the bottom of the posting screen. You will need to ensure your images are less than 150kb each including overhead, which in practice means no more than about 130kb per image, and no more than 4 attachments may be added to any one post. The attachments will need to be either .jpg or .png formats - other uploads will fail.

To make life simple for you, the board will automatically create clickable thumbnails from images larger than 150 pixels in aspect (aspect = height or width), the thumbnails will show below the post and clicking them will open the larger images. Images between 150px and 400px aspect will enlarge to an inline image below the post text, and those over 400px aspect will open in a separate popup window.   

This is how a post with images will look: http://www.yobunny.com/pottery/index.php?topic=3328.0

We know how daunting it can be to use new facilities the first time, so if you need help please either post a request for help in your topic on the board or email us directly (use the Contact link at the top of the board or send a note via the board's Private Message system to one of the moderators: Anne, Tigerchips, TonyH.)

If you need to resize your images and do not have an image program to do this you can use free software, such as Irfanview, to crop and resize your pictures ready for adding to your post.

If you need help using the program, David Encill has created a useful Irfanview tutorial at http://www.glassyeye.com which you are welcome to use.

You can download IrfanView from here: http://www.irfanview.com

Cheers!

Hi Ross:

I know when you post pics, it says this:

Allowed file types: jpg, png,
Maximum attachment size allowed: 150 KB, per post: 4


So I think that is the same as GMB.....I think......and Welcome  :gcheer: to the Board.  Nice to see you here GM Buddy !!!  :kissy:

Thanks for the greetings  :D

I will get round to putting up my Cloisonne for Kevin to see.  Plus some "Australian" pottery.  Plus questions will be asked about some of our other pottery that I/we have collected along the way.

Hello Victoriat and welcome to the board.   :cheerleader:

You will need to go to the What's My Pottery board here: http://www.yobunny.com/pottery/index.php?board=1.0 and at the top right of the topic index you will see a blue tab that says NEW TOPIC. Click that and fill in the relevant bits, add images (up to 4 per post), and then click the POST button below it all and your topic will appear as if by magic! Shout if you get stuck and need help.  :comp:
Cheers!
 Anne
