T O P I C     R E V I E W DJ Cruze Hi... Hoping you can help? I am having problems putting pics in my posts. I follow the usual procedure of using the url code etc. but no picture, Am I missing something, never had this issue before? thanks in advance James Audio Warfare Need to highlight the url and hit the image button (between the hashtag and the envelope with the blue arrows). DJ Cruze Cheers mate. I am doing that, but when I preview it the image is still not there? oxis the url should be the direct link. for example, here you can see the image i uploaded in imgur: http://imgur.com/tNwImll however, http://imgur.com/tNwImll is not the link that you should paste when trying to embed an image. on the imgur page, you can copy the direct link: (it shows you that if youre the one who uploaded it) and that is the link that you should use it should look like: (img)http://i.imgur.com/tNwImll.jpg(/img) with [ instead of ( of course most image hosting websites give you the direct link, although some require you to have an account to see it. i am not sure how it works in other websites, but thats how to do it with imgur. DJ Cruze thanks, I am trying to link Facebook pics, as mentioned, never had an issue before? Just tested your image & it worked, can I not use pics directly from Fabebook? piumaki Not sure about that but I think it happens because the Facebook images links don't finish with the filetype extension (like .jpg, .gif etc) and so the bbcode can't identify them as a picture silver Facebook URLS are not direct images, they are a page that loads the pic, grab the direct URL of the image (right click and grab the filename and path of the .jpg itself) DJ Cruze thank you :)
