How do you post pictures?

5 years ago

I know I probably should have figured it out by now, but does anyone know how to post pictures instead of links?

Is this a trick question?

xD No, I realize that I phrased that badly. I really have not figured it out yet. I accidentally posted a link instead of a picture, it still looks like a link. I think I pushed every button on the message box, but none looked like it was for pictures.smiley But I found the smiley section.

Turn off the RTE and use HTML, it's better anyway.

smiley Thank you! I found it and turned it off!

Is there a picture button maybe? For posting pictures in forums?

Wait, you turned it OFF? If RTE is ON, there should be a picture button. But if you turned it off, then you need to use HTML like this. At least I think that's what you're looking for...

xD Thank you! I have no idea what I’m doing, I was trying to use copy and paste to add a picture, because that works for links, but I ended up making a link to a picture.

xD Aaaaaaa I thought I turned it off, it is still on. I think it is turning itself on by itself.

I can’t find the button for posting pictures in forums. Is RTE or HTML easier to use?

depends, would you describe your head as containing a braincell or multiple braincells?

xD I’m not very tech-savvy if that is what you mean.

I found out that it is indeed turning itself back to RTE, it says this when I try to turn it off: 

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e57'

String or binary data would be truncated.

/My/profile.asp, line 80

It gives you an error message when you try to uncheck the box in your profile?

:) Yes it says exactly what I posted. I am using a phone, could that be the cause?

Honestly, I'd wait for a bit, then try again. The site has been giving me errors lately for a lot of things, but they usually go away within an hour.

:) If it starts working later, would HTML be easier or harder to use than RTE?

Oh I see.

Are you on a PC? I had a similar problem once and it turned out to be caused by a virus called System 32.

Aaaaa does that mean I got a virus from this site?

This site can barely serve up simple text-filled web pages these days, I don't think it's capable of hosting a virus or passing one out to anyone.

:) Really? That would be a relief if it is not a virus.

Here's the copy/paste version:

If placed in 'source' I believe, though haven't used the RTE in years, so... ?
