Help with inserting images into post please

OK.... I sell corals, I don't do tech! How do I put the photos into the thread to make them larger than if I just attach the 5 the forum allows me to. Thanks for your help!

Load them on another site like photobucket and then use the "insert image" link.

so choose the "From URL" option instead of "From Computer"???

Just go onto photobucket copy the IMG code and just paste it here as if it were text. Thats why when you "reply with quote" it shows the picture as a text vs being a picture until it is posted.

Upload to photobucket
click on pic you want
click on the (I) at the bottom right
copy bottom IMG link and paste here

Example below

Once uploaded to photo bucket, hover the mouse on the image - do not click. You will see 3 - 4 dialog box appear below the image.
Click in the IMG box. It will automatically copy the link. Come to your post and past it. That is it

Shawn, if you have them stored on another online storage that doesn't give you the IMG code, you can do it manually pretty easily.

Click on the "Insert Image" icon like you were doing before with the 5 small pics... and then choose "From URL". Paste the pics link in the address field and uncheck the "Retrieve remote file and reference locally" box. That should show the image in actual size.

If you need any help, just PM me and I can help you out.
