How do you do it? I copied my post on how to make your own door panels and the post had about 4 pictures with it. I have the pictures saved to my hard drive. I tried to insert them in the post but can't. All it does is put the crappy "img" at the bottom of the post and not where I tell it to . I have tried dragging it in and everything. Trying to copy over is a real PITA. Help :shock:

Type what you want here...

This is where I want my picture(s)...

Right Click on "Album" and "Open In New Window"
[albumimg]266[/albumimg]

Go to "Your Personal Gallery"
[albumimg]267[/albumimg]

Upload your Picture

Then once it uploads, click on the thumbnail.
Then Highlight and Copy the "BBCode" box

Cool.

I am glad to help.

is there a way to post vids on the site?

I could do some more "how tos" using vids if I had a place to put them on here.

I can do more using just pics too.

just a thought.

Max, if you post them on YouTube you can post them here. Plus it won't eat into this site's bandwidth. Here's a sample I made (a joke about web wheeling on a 4x4 site I help moderate)

make sure you click "open in new WINDOW' as you cannot do it from another tab in the same window.

One thing about the Slick 60's board is that you can "preview" your post before you hit "submit". Then there is no guess work, you'll know just what it will look like before you post it!
