Nicklfire Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 (edited) what was the error and where are you trying to upload them to? personally when i upload pictures to a thread i just use photobucket.com to upload then past the link here, i find it easier and pics are bigger Edited March 8, 2011 by Nicklfire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catshanon Posted March 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Error was: "This type of image is not supported on this board".. I had uploaded my pics to picasa and then was pasting the link to pics.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanker Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 I wonder if Picasa is storing them as png or something? I can (in this very thread) load a .gif, .jpeg and .bmp to insert in my post so I know hose three are just fine, which should suit the majority of users. Please send me a PM with the link you're trying to use. If it's giving you an error, put the link inside a Code tag (look for the "<>" above).

catshanon Posted March 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Problem solved, and it was my mistake.. I wasn't including the proper link in the "Insert Image link" field. Thanks to Nicklfire and Tanker for helping out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIJester Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 good to know... do PNG's post properly then when adding "Insert Image Link" as most of my photos default... just wondering.. I can always convert in photoshop if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
