Posting pics as links
« on: September 15, 2006, 09:53:59 AM »
Hello

I have been thinking about posting some pics, and I like the way some of you guys post the pics with the link name forming as part of a sentence. So it looks like this!. Then the reader clicks on the link and sees the pic. But I can't figure out how to do it! Can it be done using any image hosting company. Or can it only be done with photobucket?

Thanks!
Holly

As long as you have the image on the internet, and you have the URL, it doesn't matter what site you use ;)

To make it into a text link, just do this:

[*URL=URLHERE]TEXT HERE[/*URL]

Just remove the *'s =D

This thread shows you how to do it (the thread is stickied in the ZT2 Show and Tell board).

You can use imageshack, photobucket, or webhosts. I prefer photobucket. But please use one of these three, as other sites sometimes contain side and top ads that are inappropriate for children, and this is a family forum.
