I am having a problem with not being able to post pics. I am not new to posting pics in forums and have never had this problem before on any other forum. No matter how I go about posting a pic, it never shows a photo ... just a URL. It does show a pic when I hit 'preview', but once I hit submit it only shows a URL.
I have copy/pasted IMG info from PhotoBucket and it only creates a link. I have tried using both editors, copy/paste URL into the appropriate box, click ok and it only creates a link not an image. I am using the image icon too, not the link icon. I have even tried uisng [img] bbcode tag to post pics. Nothing works. Do new users on this forum have to have a certain number of posts before they can post pics? |

Quoted:
Are you sure all of the characters are being pasted? Miss one "[" or "]" and it wont work. Maybe try imgur or tinypic. Neither require sign up. Use the img code I am absolutely positive I'm doing it right. Right now I am using the basic editor. You see that little eagle icon below your name? This is the URL for that image: http://www.ar15.com/images/2008skins/icons/iconNRA.png I copied the URL for it. I then clicked this little image icon  and pasted the URL into the box. I click 'OK' and this is what I get:

It works fine as long as I use a forum icon or something like that. Any other pic URL doesn't work. |

Ok I understand what the problem is now. I just received a message from a moderator. Evidently there has been some problems with new accounts posting some nasty stuff on the forum. They enacted a 50 post minimum before you can post a pic.
Evidently, as I've shown above, the pics that originate within this site can be posted, but evidently not pics that originate outside of the forum. |
