Having trouble posting pictures of your dog?

I've noticed that alot of people new to the forums are having trouble posting pics of their dogs. So I'm going to explain how.

With Photobucket​

Step 1. Go to http://www.photobucket.com and create an account (its free!)

Step 2. Upload your pics to your account by clicking "browse" on the upload form then clicking "upload". You can upload multiple pics at a time but I don't recommend it if you have dial up.

Step 3. After you have uploaded your pics you will see lots of writing below them. It will look like this,


Step 4. Right click in the form that says "IMG Code" then click copy.

Step 5. Come to this forum and start a new topic. In the white area where you type right click in it and click on paste. Now after you type what you want on the topic and have posted your pics (maximum of 4 pics per post) click on "Submit New Thread".

Now sit back and wait for replies to your topic!

With other image hosting site​

If you use other image hosting sites such as tinypics, image shack, flickr, and many others here is how to post a picture if it doesn't provide a img code.

Step 1. Right click in the address bar while viewing the picture and click on "Select All" then right click in the address bar again and click on "Copy"

Step 2. Come here and click on "New Thread" and you can type in whatever title you wish and then in post box look above it for a symbol that looks like this and click on it.

(I put a red box around the symbol)

Step 3. A box will appear that looks like the image below and then right click in the white box and click on "Paste".


Step 4. Click on "Ok"

Repeat above steps for multiple pics, remember 4 picture maximum per post and this includes simileys!

I created this topic on another forum, so thats why some examples look different than they would here, but it works the same.

^ I made that one ages ago.

Another thing that may help people new to photobucket - USE THE OLD UPLOADER! I can't stress this enough. The new one sucks eggs. Heck, the new one sucks ducks sucking eggs. Yes, it's THAT bad. I haven't actually had it upload anything yet...

Yea, but yours has several large images, you didn't have to take a screen shot of each step , mine is made for people with dial up internet or a slow internet connection. I have a high speed dsl connection and that took to long to load.

They are both good and it's nice to have lots of info out there

The reason I took screenshots was because I was making it for someone who was having photobucket problems, and wanted to make following it as simple as possible. (It ended up not helping, though, but that was photobucket's fault and not hers.)

I use tinypics. Its also free but you do not need to create an account to load pictures.

I use a server that I love called:http://www.servimg.com/index.php?...,I don't like photobucket!.
As for videos,i use youtube!.

Ok, just so you know. This is a help topic, not discussion and that a mod will be locking the topic and possibly deleting the post, except for the 1st one.

and who are you going to tell us that its not a discussion topic...??

:rofl1: uh say what???? :rofl1:

Oooook.. he's just trying to help. Back to your corners.... everyone.

Well I don't know how its ran here but on every other forum I've been on a help topic is always locked and any post beside the first one is deleted. And I am the one saying its not a discussion topic.

Well then.. allow me to introduce you to Chazhound. We don't run things like other forums and are truly unique in many aspects. One of them being that we let threads run a natural course.

Soo.. you may want this to be a solely "help" thread people can access when needed... buuut, it turns out it's become a discussion thread.

Oh, ok. But why make it a pinned topic if your not going to lock it? I thought that was the point so that people can refer to it for help but not to talk about it.

And that what makes us awesome!! :hail:

We have lots of threads that are stickied that remain open for discussion. Just because something is a help topic does not mean a question may not arise further down the road.

The help is still available in the first post. Anything else is an optional read. I can't think of a single sticky that has been locked. And all threads are open for discussion except the very few that get too heated and needed to be locked. Like BP said, we run things a little differently and I think you'll find us to be a very open forum.

Thanks for the help

Thank you for telling and showing me how to post pics with my posts. I appreciate the simpleness....I need that. :lol-sign:
Thanks again
now can you tell me how to get these wonderful sigs everyone is talking about?
