Default picture question??

How come this forum is so hard to add pictures to? Often see many post about having a hard time adding/posting pics. Many, other forums just have add picture/file button at the bottom, in options.

Good question. However, if you use a hosting site like photobucket.com or tinypic.com, adding pics to a post is pretty easy. Just takes time to upload the pics from your computer to the hosting site and then copying the IMG link to your post here on the forum.

I use flickr pro since I have so many pics. Once you upload the pictures to there. Right click the picture and get the url. Then put it in between [IMG] [/IMG]

Just use photobucket, Very easy to use, I am willing to bet the reason there isn't a browse button to upload pictures is to conserve storage and bandwidth. Using photobucket all you have to do is upload your images and 1 click to copy the address and paste it in your post.

It really couldn't be any easier. Just put your pictures on a hosting site (like Photobucket) and it's damn near automatic.

The vast majority of discussion forums like this one do it the same way. Its extremely easy. Ill never understand why people whine that its SO hard.

Flickr's pictures are much better quality IMO. I have used both. Wasn't very impressed with photobucket.

I guess then it must be me, for some reason I have a problem when I try and I have a photobucket account. Maybe I gotta work on this and straighten out whatever problem I keep having. Sometimes when I do, it loads them at different sizes.

I myself find Photobucket a lot better in use and quality, Do a search for some of my pictures and take a look.
