    How to post a photo?

    This is the first I have tried to post a photo, but without success.

    I have placed a photo on Photobucket and I now need to know how to place it in a forum post. I need to know the proper [img] code that needs to be in front of and at the end of the photobucket code. I know [img] needs to be there, but I'm missing something. I copied the phototbucket code over and I hit preview and all I see is the photobucket code. HELP !

    Thank you.

    Ok in photobucket under the photo, when you put your mouse over it, you will see a few boxes, what you want to do is copy the bottom one the IMG code and paste it in your message

    McMurdo,
    Thanks again. That's what I tried to do, and this is what I get:

    <a href="http://s594.photobucket.com/albums/tt29/SantaWally/?action=view&current=DSCN0453-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt29/SantaWally/DSCN0453-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

    I also put [img] in front of and behind the photobucket code. Still no photo.

    On photobucket the [img] shows up, but it doesn't appear when I paste it on X Marks.

    McMurdo,

    I tried again and it worked this time. I had to click another button to generate the code. It was much shorter than what was showing up right under the photo as an [img] code.

    This is my first attempt at posting. Now I need to remember what I did.
