Moderators dtel Posted November 1, 2013 Moderators Share Posted November 1, 2013 What is the easiest way to get a URL for a pic on my computer or hard drive ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Chad Posted November 1, 2013 Administrators Share Posted November 1, 2013 To get a URL for a pic, you need to put it online somewhere. There are sites like Flickr.com, photobucket, and others that let you do this for free. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome ChadW your doing a great job. If you are trying to post a picture here in our forums, you can attach images to your post (which uploads them from your computer and adds them to the post) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted November 2, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted November 2, 2013 When I click on the little image button it ask me for a URL, I don't see anything else ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich_Guy Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Go to the bottom below the typing area and use Attach Files. There are 3 steps. First use Browse to select your file, then use Attach This File and last you will see an option to Add to Post. I added this picture this way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustang guy Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 The cool thing about this is you can attach multiple files now. I really like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 So you can't just put a url in the image box? When I tried, I got the error message : You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I think I know what I did wrong. When I went to the image, I copied and pasted the url from the properties of the pic. Instead, I should have clicked the image and gotten the url from that image instead. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
