Help please! Forgotten how to put images in PIREPS!

[GHAO 0]

Hi all, title says it all!

I've got the text written out and it's autosaved in the forums so I can leave it and come back to it, but I'm a little late doing it (blame Santa )

But when I go to photobucket I can't remember which link to copy, then which button to press.

I copied my text from Word, and for some reason I had to fiddle with HTML and BBCode and turn them both on then off again to get the text to appear (paste from word didn't seem to work), but I think the text is all normal now...

 

Can anyone shed light on this?

 

Thank you, hope you all had a great Christmas!

George, PhotoBucket has changed, so you may have forgotten the html...

Basically, the normal browser based PB gives you 4 options - none of which allow you to post your PB library image directly. Funnily enough, the PB iPad app has a fifth option, which is the one you want. Here it is, with curly not square brackets:

i think the 4th PB browser option is similar to this except that there's a leading html string like:

{URL=http... blah blah blah ...jpg}

this needs removing, as does the trailing {/URL} string. (Note curly represent square brackets)

You should then see your image - like this one captured from my iPad using the PB app:

Hope that helps!

Thanks Dai, that makes sense....

This is what I get...

Aah, it works!

Should I have needed to use the BBCode button toggle thing on the topright? Otherwise I couldn't see the link...
