I posted in the Lavender Room about posting from the interwebs. I'm trying to post a photo of a chamois cream from the maker's web site without the attending text, so the url alone won't work.

How do I keep up with some of our more comedic posters' material?

for me, the most reliable way to post pictures on ST, mac and windows alike, (providing your image is somewhere on the web) is this:
  • type the phrase "img" surrounded by square brackets. not parentheses, curly brackets, or <> symbols.
  • immediately after, paste the URL for your image (it should end in .jpg or .gif or something similar).
  • type the phrase "/img" also surrounded by square brackets
click the Preview Post button to see if your image will show up, or if viewers will see a red X.

i'd post some example text, but dan's server (in it's exquisite sleuthfullness) will think i'm trying to show an image and replace it with said image.

I have done ALL this. My problem is once I click on the image icon on ST, then paste the URL as mentioned in your post, I click ok, but nothing happens. The box stays there and nothing uploads. I have a mac running Lion, tried safari and firefox. Any suggestions?

I was having trouble until I skipped clicking on the photo upload button and just pasted (Control-V) the tiny pic IMG code directly in the body of the post.

I'm not trying to send a private message. Is this the same rule for posting in the classifieds?

Ok thanks Sally. I'm not trying to sell something, but I would like to start a new post. I'm looking to buy a used Halo swim trainer. I will keep checking back. Thanks again for your help :)

Start a new thread in the Tri forum and say what you wrote to me. You have to get 25 posts in order to be a "regular" here.

In the Lavender Room, the Word Association thread is an easy way to push up your post count without encountering too many crazy people.

Only about 20 more posts and you're there ;-)

Hmm, that's not working. The photo just doesn't show up after I copy the url in.

Any ideas?

If you are using Safari you need to use the IMG Code not the Direct Link for Layouts.

Ah, thanks!
