Photos in messages

Hi Dan and everyone,

I can't figure something out here - how do people post pictures as part of their messages? Not avatars or signatures (I think) but actual larger pictures that show up in the message body. Thanks!!

Hi Carole..*smiles*

To do this, the picture must be hosted somewhere on the internet. If you're trying to post a picture that is already hosted on a website? What you need to do is right click on the image and then choose "Properties." On the subsequent popup box, you'll see the properties of the image...and one of them will be the URL of the image. Highlight that URL and copy it...

Then, when you come to ageless, go to the page where you type up your post. Up above the box where you type, there will be a series of buttons...starting with a B for Bold, I for Italics...etc. You'll want to click on the icon that looks like a picture of a mountain and sun. (Looks like a little post card, actually.) That will bring up a box. Just paste the URL into that box...click okay and it will insert the picture for you.

To make sure it comes up, just preview the message.

If it's a picture you have on your hard drive...you will have to upload it. I suggest going to www.imageshack.us and upload it there. Once uploaded, it will give you the direct URL to the image and then you just come here and copy it like you would as if it were already hosted.

Hope that helps...

Great Dan!

Thanks a lot - I will give it a try!

Thanks for the tip on how to post pictures in post, Dan-the-Man-Shues. I was going to BUST if I couldn't get that "Joke: Dear Dr. Ruth" on the boards!
One quick question, however, I could not copy the URL (had to type it in) because I couldn't access the pull-down menu with properties open. I seem to remember MS-DOS keystrokes for copy and paste. Can you tell me what they are?

Chatterbox...

You mean Control-C to copy and Control-V to paste?

I'm giving this a try. If I did it right it should be the pic of me w/my puppy :)
