Do you mean like this?

or like this?

if you want it to show the image put

[img][/img]

and it should show up.

Also your image has to be on your own image host. If you do not have one take a look here.

Hot linking from someone else's image link, is very bad.

(Sorry I treat new people (does not matter if they know abotu hot linking or not) like newbies {Tongue Out} )

Insert the image code

Code:
 
  1. [img]Some image link here[/img]
 


If you cannot right click, that means you must have a code that stops right clicking all together.

It would help greatly if you would show me the forum you are having trouble on.

And how old are you?

{Cheesy} meh

And it would help if I could see the boards.. {Wink}

Though I can right click just fine.

Also another alternative would be CTRL + V To paste it in.

Re: Inserting images - Posted By heather (heather) on 28th Sep 08 at 9:14pm
Duh, done that!!! I may be old, but have plenty of experience {Wink}

Ok, so how do I let you see my boards Darkmage {Confused}

Re: Inserting images - Posted By Nick (nickb) on 28th Sep 08 at 10:07pm
XD

Well first go into Admin>Manage Forum Permissions>View Categories> Check all for guests Guests.

Then when you are done with that go to:
Admin>Manage Forum Permissions>View Boards> Check all for guests Guests.

Then I will be able to see them.

I see that you have allot of members, ask them if they can right click and paste.

Hi

Within the [img] tags, you need to put a link to the image itself. For example, here i've done this image: Image. For this, i've taken the link of the image and inserted it in the image tags:

Code:
 
  1. [img]http://virtualforums.co.uk/images/home.gif[/img]
 


If the image is on your computer, then try uploading it to a free image host like http://imageshack.us or http://photobucket.com {Smile}

Re: Inserting images - Posted By Nick (nickb) on 28th Sep 08 at 10:32pm
Graham she said she can't right click.... but she can paste it using keyboard.

For image hosting, the best is http://wimg.co.uk

Heather, what exactly do you mean by "Comment Box" ?

Do you mean into posts, such as this? Or do you mean your headers/footers?

EDIT:

If you mean that you're trying to literally copy/paste the image itself into the box, then no that will not work.

The image must first be uploaded, and then you should enter the code given a few times in this topic into the post box. Upon actually submitting the post, the image should appear in the post. {Smile}

Re: Inserting images - Posted By heather (heather) on 29th Sep 08 at 11:04am
Yes sorry, I meant this box.

Nope still doesn't work, what the hell am I doing wrong *stamps feet* Grr

Ok so happy to let anyone of you on to the forum to post and see what I mean, but don't want to make the boards public, not even for a few mins, can't you register{Confused}


Are you all loosing your patients with me yet? LOL {Tongue Out}

Re: Inserting images - Posted By Nick (nickb) on 29th Sep 08 at 5:29pm
I will transfer my account there, It should be done in a few seconds.

edit:

Well I transferred my account, and I went onto your boards and I could right click just fine on both Quick Reply and Normal reply.

The error has to do with your computer, Try clearing Cache, Temp. Internet Files, etc, and see if that works. If not then most likely you will have to wait for Ross to handle it.

Re: Inserting images - Posted By heather (heather) on 29th Sep 08 at 8:47pm
It's working now and cleared everything you said, do you think I was having a blonde moment {Unsure}

Angels, thankyou. Now I want feedback on my forum, whatcha think guys{Confused} LOL

Heather {Kiss}
