How to insert pictures
Original Message   Feb 11, 2008 3:03 pm
1.  Select 'New Topic' or "Reply"
2.  Enter text in the message area you wish to have surround the picture you are planning to add.
3.  Select the 'Insert/Edit Image' button just above the message area.  A small window pops up.
4.  In this window type the URL of the image you wish to insert.  It should begin with 'http://"  and end with ".gif" or ".jpg".  Click OK.
4b.  If the picture is on your personal hard drive you will need to upload it to a picture sharing/storage service like Flickr.  Once the picture is on that site you can simply cut and paste the URL of the image into the small window in step 4.

If you have ideas or opinions on uploading pictures please send Admin a PM.

I have posted thread with pictures a number of times and it becomes a big headache. The pictures get duplicated for some reason by Abbys editor. Sometimes it happens on a cut and paste to another area. It also happens if I return to a thread to edit. On closing duplicate pictures and text show up. I edit those out and post again but when the post finalizes it shows the same duplicates and often more. This has happened a number of times and is a bug.

Question for the Admins; what is the best or optimum width in pixels to crop and re-size images to for posting here?  I usually go to 800 pixels or 900 pixels in width to keep everyone happy and to not blow out the formatting etc.  Is there a perfect width in pixels to use here?  Thanks.

1. done 2. in process.. 3. There is no such button. 4. NA 4a. NA Number 3 is the stopper. I'm using Chrome as my browser and W7 pro as OS. Also, I don't see any of the editing tools that are listed as available. Just joined today. Thanks
