I can get links to pics to work but cannot get pictures "hot". Instructions seem very clear and simple but it doesn't work for me.

Just came over from CSP and trying to figure out how to post a picture. I had just got it figured out on CSP. Lets see what happens.
I just checked the "preview" and it worked. Is there a way to post a picture that is stored on your computer or do you need to use a hosting site like Photobucket ?? Joe

(Second posting of this same message tonight) :mad:

Hello .... :)

Just for clarity .....

We're going to try and get these new forums off to a good start by leaving the sandbox antics behind. :lol:

Neither I, or any other moderators will have the patience threshold for inappropriate and immature behavior, watching folks beat on each other for sport. :bash:

So, I'm asking everyone to please re-read the Welcome .... Please Read First! (click here) introductory post again carefully, particularly the part that relates to behavior and posting. :nono:

Let's enjoy the hobby and each other, as well as try to remember that what we post on the Internet, is often different than what we would say to the same person face to face, because it's just too easy to hide anonymously behind our keyboards. ;)

We hope everyone enjoys themselves here and if there are any questions or further clarification needed about what's appropriate and not, please don't hesitate to email us at cspadmin@milsurps.com

Thanks for listening and cooperating..... :thup:

Unless you leave your computer on 24/7 and have it set up as a server you will need to upload it to a photohost of some type like Photobucket.

03-02-2009, 02:50 AM

Are you saying the URL shows and not the picture listed at the URL?

If you post it manually you have to put the correct tags before and after the URL

It would be https://www.milsurps.com/images/imported/deleted.gif

Gloria specifically requested that the option to EDIT posts be turned OFF for the new CSP Forums, whereas it's available in all of the rest of the Milsurp site forums. I gather she had some really bad experiences and other issues when it was ON in their old forums, with people going back in time changing the context of posts, which created chaos and bad feelings.

I believe it's appropriate to at least have the EDIT capability active for a short period of time, so posters can go back and make spelling, grammar, or other corrections.

So, I've asked her to reconsider the decision and will advise if she changes her mind ....

Please make sure other CSP members understand this design choice made by Gloria, which is specific to the CSP Forums only.

Thanks ..... :thup:

Im happy to hear that this really is an extension of CSP and that we still have our leaders. I hope that posters can be identified and silenced when the feuding(childish flaming) and political rants get started. Thanks to the Culvers for again giving us bustout Garandaholics a place to gather.

03-03-2009, 05:48 PM

If you have pics on your hard drive (My Pictures, for example), hit GO ADVANCED. Type your reply, then drop down and click on MANAGE ATTACHMENTS. Click on the first BROWSE. That will bring up your own desktop. Go to the picture, just as if you want to look at it. Highlight the file name, then click on UPLOAD. If that is your last/only picture, click on CLOSE THIS WINDOW in the upper right; if you want to insert more pictures, go back and click on the next BROWSE and repeat.

If you use Photobucket, there is a special section for that. If you know the URL of the picture you want to incorporate, you can use the "IMAGE" icon (the picture of mountains) in the QUICK REPLY or the ADVANCED screen. Make sure you don't have double "http://" in your URL.
