Mallette Posted September 19, 2002 Share Posted September 19, 2002 Would someone please clue me in to how to post pix, get HTML to work, etc. on the forum? I assumed HTML was just a matter of including the markings, just like in old time word processing ala Wordstar. However, they just seem to show as characters. My screen says HTML is off...but doesn't offer any suggestions as to how to turn it on. Haven't a clue as to how to post a pix here. Thanks in advance, Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpg Posted September 19, 2002 Share Posted September 19, 2002 These boards don't like HTML. What you actually use is UBB Code. For instance, to get a pic to show up in text, you would put: then the url here with no spaces between it and the tags edit my post to see how to use it is you need to. I have a lot of other stuff using URL's in there. ------------------ SoundWise / <A HREF="maimailto:Promediatech@klispch.com">ProMedia Tech Support</A> / 1-888-554-5665s> This message has been edited by trespasser_guy on 09-19-2002 at 09:02 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpg Posted September 19, 2002 Share Posted September 19, 2002 An example: using the img braxckets and http://216.37.9.58/ubb/bbtitle5.jpg we will get this pic: you can also add a link to that if you want so the image will take you somewhere... try clicking on the one below...: And my sig turned into html when I edited it above... hopefully I won't need to edit here,. or I will have to redo it... ------------------ SoundWise / ProMedia Tech Support / 1-888-554-5665s> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallette Posted September 19, 2002 Author Share Posted September 19, 2002 Hmmm. That's just what I tried using the "advanced" box. But the characters just showed up with no formating applied. I'll turn my sig on to show... Dave ------------------ David A. Mallett Come taste muh' Klipsch!

tpg Posted September 19, 2002 Share Posted September 19, 2002 Your problem is this in your sig: after the first b for bold, you have the } instead of ]. ------------------ SoundWise / ProMedia Tech Support / 1-888-554-5665s> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallette Posted September 20, 2002 Author Share Posted September 20, 2002 You are correct, sir. Small things count... Now, on images, do you put a local path between the code? Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave local path, you mean like C:\programs\paintshop\photohome.jpg... then no. you need to get it uploaded to the net, then put the path you get from there. or email it to me and let me do it for you, i can host larger files and it takes some weight off of the klipsch servers. you can get my email from below ------------------ -justin SoundWise promediatech@Klipsch.com /1-888-554-5665 - RA# 800-554-7724 ext 5s> Email Me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallette Posted September 20, 2002 Author Share Posted September 20, 2002 Thanks, Justin. Hospitable as usual. I've not had a site in a while, and no online storage since Visto went under, so I might take you up on that. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have plenty of space and bandwidth, and it is super fast And if your pics are say 2mb high res ones, send those and let me reduce them with PhotoShop 7, it does a terrific job ------------------ -justin SoundWise promediatech@Klipsch.com /1-888-554-5665 - RA# 800-554-7724 ext 5s> Email Me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
