Hi. I am having trouble posting images since the change over to Kitmaker galleries. Why is that. I click on the [img] icon on the posting page and paste in the url from the picture as displayed on the Kitmaker gallery page. All I get is the red x Whats going on?

I think waht happens is that by clicking on the link thing in the gallery, you import a space which messes up the coding.
What I do is to right click the picture, choose "Properties" in the bottom of hte box then tripple click the address and right click that, choosing the "Copy" option.
Back in the post, I clilck the IMG button, highlight the text not in the brackets, right click this and choise the "Paste" option.
If I'm doing multilpe pictures, I'll drop the addresses in a word document first, add the image tags, img and /img inside brackets at the beginnig and end of each address and copy and paste the whole thing into a post.

If you copy the link under your photo in the gallery you do NOT need to click the image thigie in the post page as the [ img ] - [ /img ] are already at each end of the URL to the picture.

So just copy and paste the address under the gallery picture.

Hope that is understandable.

Cheers
Cliff

PS> If you wish to post a link to somewhere else on the internet to a photo in the kitmaker gallery you must use the URL brought up when you right click and then click properties.

OK, try again

Al's method



Cliffs method

Some degree of success.....


Once more... cut and paste the url from under the picture..

I just don't get it!! Now the same picture with with Al's method

Confusion reigns

Cliff's way:


as I scratch my bald head......

my way.

ARE YOU STILL CLICKING ON THE [ IMG ] put url here[ / IMG ] on the topic post page????????????????????????????? 'CAUSE YOU SHOULD NOT BE!

I bet you are and this is why it will not work for you.

cheers

I always go to the individual pic, right click, copy the url, then I add my own [ img] [/ img] tags around the url.

This way works best for me as well. I found out the links tend to become inconsistent once you start moving your pictures in your gallery for MoM and campaigns. Alan's method as described should work like a charm.

Ok, same picture both methods (to prove that the file isn't corrupt)

Didn't use the [img] thingies this time

Very Interesting Watson........


The answer lies here::::
when you copy and paste the properties... you get:
http://photos.kitmaker.net/data/14736/Launch-002.jpg and add the [img] tags it comes up.....


when you click the copy on the bottom.... you get:
http://photos.kitmaker.net/data/500/Launch-002.jpg it already has the [img] tags but to a totally different location......

Two different locations...... !!!!

Something Staff_Jim will need to figure out why......
because I have no idea why!!!!...... LOL

Only a partial there Grumps

Something to do with two different addresses.... one's 500... the others 14736...... why I have no idea....
