BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Crochet How to include pictures with your forum posts

Hello - I've had a couple of emails asking about how to include pics with forum posts. There is more info here FAQ's
however it is easy to do. First of all your pictures need to be hosted somewhere else - for instance one of the free photo hosting sites such as Photobucket.com. You then simply follow the instructions given in the FAQ.

You are welcome to post any crochet related pics - we love to see what each other are doing with our crochet!

If you haven't posted a photo before don't worry - have a go and if it doesn't work we'll sort it out together!!

Hmmm, I clicked on FAQ'S and this is what I see:
No input file specified..
Can you help?

Hi - yes, I see what you mean.

However, to post an image is really easy. Simply start a new post and look at the icons at the top of the text box. Press the 'image' button and enter the url of where your picture is stored (it needs to be hosted elsewhere first).

Hope this works!

Thanks, Kate. I am going to try this. I have a picture I want to appear with all my posts.

Its nice when you can put a face to the post, a bunch of beautiful people

I like Diana's image that she uses.

It worked!!! Thanks a lot, Kate! I used a sketch that a friend of mine did of a Native American grandmother holding her grandson. I am soooo happy!

I just tried posting a picture using the instructions above and it didn't work for me. Can someone help me?

What is the URL of your photo?

Sorry for taking so long to respond. I just figured it out! Thx!
