Yep, its all here http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/YaBBHelp/posting.html

To post a picture you need to type it in this format the picture has to be already hosted on the web though, I use www.tinypic.com

[#img]http://site.com/image.gif[/img#] but remove the # from both ends

I have severil piks on my digital camera. approx 18. I have managed to get them into a file on the computer. I checked out the links on this thread and just don't get it. (I am not exactly) computer literate ! Even tried the msn bit and had no luck there. It said it was downloading them then never started. I tried for a couple of hours .

You need to have them "hosted" on a server, ie the picture is available on the internetb , you cant just put a link to a file on your pc.

If you go here http://tinypic.com/ and in the FILE box browse to the file on your pc then upload it.
Once its done there will be a link shown in the [ img ] format, all you do is copy and paste that into your post

P.s. remember the size limit on the forum, digital pictures have a habit of being huge ;) you might need to resize them before you upload them
