Ok i know there is a post for pics but i need help.
i cant live without pictures and everyone says i can take pictures right off pinpics and put them in my post. i have tried 6 ways and none work. just an x and pic wont load. i am not sure if the html being off is the issue or if the fact that im not allowed attachments may be, but while trying to avoid loading 1000 pictures to a picture website and adding them one by one is there any one who can help?

happy trades
Kirk
 
Hey Kirk... This is what I do...

First list the pins in PinPics... (I select the display option in the upper right that shows a small picture,pin number, description...

Next I use my mouse to highlight everything I want to copy including the pictures... Hit Ctrl+C to Copy the selection...

Then I open a new Microsoft Word Document, Click on the area of the document then press Ctrl+V to Paste it there... Now this will take a minute or two up to several minutes since the paste process has to not only transfer text, but all the pictures as well... After modifiying the Word Document to include pricing or a title and such, then I save it as a PDF or jpg...

Finally I go to my profile and upload the document as an image into an album then copy that link into the insert image tab of your thread...

A lot of work the first time, but once saved it is easy to go back and make modification and changes since it is also saved as a word document... Then all you need to do is re-save it as a pdf again and replace the old copy in your album...

I am not sure if this in any way helps... but good luck...
 
and... Heres what I do.

have your thread reply or post open. have pinpics open.
I right click the image on pinpics, copy the long code in the window that pops up.
go to post, open "insert image" the little framed tree in the post toolbar.
Paste code and click ok.
Presto, you have a pic on your post.

To add a link to said picture:
Go back to pinpics.
copy the web address.
back to post,click on the pic, it will either turn blue, or have a box around it.
click on "link", the globe with the loopy thing stuck to it.
paste web address and click ok.

tada! pic with link imbedded.
