Re: Need Instructions on How to Place Photos and the Like on the Boards

I used to be able to post from PhotoBucket, but last time I tried it, I couldn't do it. Not sure why.

I wish Mac's had the "right click" option..... I can't seem to post any pictures anymore.

MaggieToo - Sometimes it's the browser. I've had to switch browsers on occasion in order to make Photobucket work. These days I use it in Firefox. Chrome doesn't seem to work as well anymore.

As with many others, I've enjoyed hundreds if not thousands of photos and animated or still greeting prints over the years on these boards and would like to learn how to do this. My tech savvy DH is stumped on this one, hence my request to you.

I'd appreciate step-by-step instructions so I don't trip myself up in the process.

Thanks so much!

Do you have any pictures on PhotoBucket or any other online website? If so, you can find the picture on that website, open it, and then do a "copy image", come back to this box and hit paste, or do a “drop and drag” from Photo Bucket to the blank part of the reply or post you are typing.

This may depend on which browser you are using. I use primarily Firefox and I can many times just "drag and drop" a file from a folder in my Windows Explorer Folder. Internet Explorer Browser doesn't seem to be cooperative all the time. Some times I have to take a photo from my PhotoBucket account and "drag and drop or copy and paste".

That is how I do it.

chickenbutt: Thank you for further clarifications!

focksie: Thanks a billion for a most comprehensive presentation. I very much appreciate the time you spent on this piece, which I know will be of immense help!!!

John: No, I don't have photos on Photobucket or any like site. I'm just a beginner, so clearly need to go there to begin to make things happen. I've had zero luck with internet explorer and click and drag onto this forum, so gave that up a long time ago. Thank you so much for chiming in with valuable information.
