Guide To Posting Images In Thread Starter Posts and Thread Replies.

1) WARNING: Firstly because of hot linking, bandwidth, copyright issues and images possibly being changed by the original hosts, please make sure you are saving the correct image to your desktop and before hosting them on another website.

Once the image is on your computer, you'll need to use a free hosting site, such as: http://www.photobucket.com or http://www.tinypic.com/ or http://www.imageshack.us to upload and host them on. Browse your desktop or folders for the image you want to upload to one of those sites, then click "Upload".



Once that's completed, a URL or web address will automatically be created for you to copy and paste in the forum as above 'Direct Link' for deal submissions or 'IMG Code' for forum thread replies.

2) Saving An Image: If you're going to use an image from another website, hover your mouse pointer over the image you want to show, right click over it and choose 'Save Image As' in FireFox of 'Save Picture As' in Internet Explorer, then save it to your desktop or to a folder where you can easily find it again later for uploading.


3) Posting An Image When Submitting A Deal: In the 'Link To Image File' field for the Hot Deals, Freebies, Competitions and For Sale or Trade forums: By hovering your mouse pointer over the image and right clicking, choose either 'Properties' at the bottom of the right click menu in Internet Explorer or 'Copy Image Location' in FireFox

If 'Properties' in Internet Explorer, you need to highlight the image Address or URL completely and copy it by right clicking over it once it's all been highlighted. FireFox is easier, as you only need to click on "Copy Image Location".

a) Paste the copied URL in to the 'Link To Image File' for deal submissions.

b) For forum thread replies and posts, paste the link in using the button as below.

Image Hosting Sites

Whichever image hosting site you use you'll find other edit options, to resize or crop your images for example.

Some allow you to paste in the web address of images directly without you having to save them to your computer.

You'll soon find them quite easy to use, please remember to check that you have them set to 'private' if you don't want all your images showing up.

WARNING: If you use the original website's domain image location, web address or URL, they have been known to change and display pornography or spam images. That's why it's always in your best interest to save the image you want to your computer and then to host it on a trusted image hosting site.

Who on earth would post such nonsense.
I can't believe that would ever happen.

Agreed

This is the only forum site i've seen without 'Stickies', at least topics like this that come up often

[rayman]

Due to the site's custom software stickies won't work here.

Wherever you this in the op: 'Tags: hukd help' <<< click on that for other useful help threads.

OK thanks for trying to help me out - I have uploaded the images from my computer to Imageshack, and as there are quite a few pictures of the jeans, I have an awful lot of codes, 3 per item it would appear...

(Here is one)

Can I put them all on the same ad, separated by a comma, or am I posting the wrong code?

S-O-R-R-Y for being blonde!

I am not sure about the comma, but you have used the correct code.
Just copy the codes one by one, and paste them into a reply box on HUKD.

You can see what your post will look like before you submit it by selecting "Preview Post" or "Go Advanced" depending on which reply box you have used.

[vibeone]

I woudnt bother with embedding the images - just post the links as you already have, one per line.

Like this:

http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/8130/...eansfronty2.jpg
http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/8130/...eansfronty3.jpg

obviously replacing the web addresses with the correct one.

I much prefer that to embedding huge images etc.

Can you post small gif files in a thread?

Yes, exactly the same way you post a normal image.
