There's a how-to thread pinned at the top of the forum, click here to get there directly - http://www.thephotoforum.com/forum/...forum-functions-pictoral-guide-using-tpf.html

You'll want to put your photos on a flicker or photobucket page, and then post them from there. Easy to do, once you get the instructions on it

Yeah....geez.....who does not know how to post pictures???? oh yeah, I had problems about an hour ago. Photobucket is what I have and it works great. Just upload your photos, copy the proper URL, paste it into your post and its all good.

i created a flickr account for this reason .. how do i get the URL ?

Flickr - go to the share button above the image, choose grab the HTML/bbcode, check off that you want the bbcode, copy it and paste here.

Could it be because my photos are private? ... Thankyou both so much for helping me out btw =)

The directions i gave for flickr - you copy and paste it where you type your reply.

So yeah your doing It wrong if your following my directions. Paste it in the reply box - same place where you would type something
