      HELP - How do I add an image to a post?

      West Kootenay Touring Guide

      To find out how to add an image to a post like the one to the right simply follow steps below which take you through the process.

      (NOTE: Images should have a resolution of  72ppi (low res) and be no wider than 500pixels in order to upload fast but if this is all mumbo-jumbo to you then upload what you have and it will be auto scaled to 480 pixels wide in order to display properly.)



      1. CREATE A NEW POST

      Either click on "Add A New Topic" on the right side of the orange bar above the existing forum topics, or you can reply to an existing post by clicking on the "Reply To Post" in the same orange bar. In both cases remember that you have to be registered and logged in with your username and password.

      2. GET STARTED

      Click on the "tree" icon" in the menu bar above the text editor you type into.

      3. FIND YOUR IMAGE

      Click on "browse" in the pop up dialog box (upper right).

      4.  UPLOAD YOUR IMAGE

      how to upload images 4


      Click on "browse" in the dialog box  (bottom left, not the tab at the top) and find your image on your computer. (You can select multiple images at the same time by using the shift key.)

      Once you have found your picture and selected it, it'll appear under "File Name". Make sure to click on the picture you want (it will be highlighted) then click on the "upload" button in the bottom right to place the image in the window where you can select it for placement in your post.

      Once the picture has been uploaded, its file name will no longer be visible in this window and you will see "successfully uploaded" at the top. Then click on the "Browse" tab (top left)

      5. SELECT YOUR IMAGE

      You will now see your new image's thumbnail in the window, select the image and you will be back at the first dialog box you started with.

      Hi John, you need to click on the "Upload" button (see step #4) to upload the image to your tiny browser which is essentially a portfolio of images you upload and then choose from. Once it is uploaded you browse for it in the tiny browser and when you click the image itself to select it and it will be placed.


      Hope that this helps.

      i am having difficulties uploading images... i get some kind of error saying i don't have the correct settings. i exported my images at the correct size you specify in this thread but once uploaded i do not get the green successful upload dialogue box rather a red error one...

      any help would be greatly appreciated.

      thx
