Chilli Powder Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 You should be able to Nigel. What do you mean directly? just hit the IMG button and type or copy and paste the URL. Hope this works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted November 25, 2003 Author Share Posted November 25, 2003 Arj it didnt work for me all i got was the link to the photo. I think i must have done it wrong. When i hit the IMG button and type the url and hit ok it tells me i am not allowed to do it. Any idea why Arj. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted November 25, 2003 Author Share Posted November 25, 2003 David i would still like to know what the problem with posting a photo is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiona Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Are they ones you are permitted to hotlink to?You are typing in the URL right?It seems strange. The one above comes from my webshots account and it loaded up fine and is displaying fine. In fact I hadn't realised you could link to webshots images!

Chester Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Nigel,Can you tell us the exact http:// address that you are using after you click the IMG button?Maybe someone will notice a syntax problem with what you are doing.Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted November 25, 2003 Author Share Posted November 25, 2003 It does not seem to be the link. The forum wont let me do it i had no problem on the old forum. When i put the URL in the drop down box and click ok it wont allow the link. I hope i am saying this right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

testaccount Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Nigel -Here's my test of the SCP advertiser group. It works. Check your settings (Board Settings under "My Controls").Send me the URL you are trying to post and I will see what I can do.YeW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted November 25, 2003 Author Share Posted November 25, 2003 Hi David it is the same url that my signature is comeing from. It will let me link photos but not post them if that makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViS Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Nigel, if that is the url then it won't work. It needs to end in ".jpg" or ".gif" or similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fiona Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Thanks for letting me know my image doesn't work, it is showing for me, maybe coz it's in my cache. :rolleyes: I didn't think Webshots allowed hotlinking!!Here's the pic that I was imagining I was linking from Webshots, just as a BTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
