How do I add pictures in the post?

[ImnoGuru]

Oh ok, thanks soybean, I would have thought Ctrl P for Paste. Handy to know though.

So how come my post had the scripture next to the photo?

Ctrl/P would seem logical for Paste but Ctrl/V is actually much better since letter C and V are next to each other and close enough to the left Ctrl button to use it and both letters with one hand.

So how come my post had the scripture next to the photo?

You must have duplicated the URL in your code string.  Go back and look at kpac's posts.  The URL for the image should only appear once in your code string if you merely want to display the image, as follows:



If you want to display the image and have it function as a hyperlink, then you would have two instances of the URL in the code string but, of course, it must be in the correct sequence/syntax.  Here's the image as a hyperlink, as you will see if your hover your mouse over it:



Did you look at http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/topic,61232.0.html as advised?  The examples for "Hotlink for forums" show the code for a hyperlinked image; as you can see there, the commands included in the [] can be in lower case or upper case letters.

Thanks soybean, for your input. I suppose it makes good sense that both shortcuts are local to each other.

Yes I had a look at all the links provided thank you.

I used evilfantasy's page to produce the one with the link and photo.... and yes as it turns out I did hit the link twice during the process.
I thought about it at the time but decided to leave it in to see what would happen.
Now I know for certain what happens.

The link that kpac, provided for the SMF user help on Bulletin Board Code is most complete.
I beleive BC_Programmer, may have introduced me to that area once before.

Wow...  ,  use the image as the hyperlink. So thats how you do that.

Ok how do you do that? (it must be in the correct sequence/syntax.)

As it turns out I am of recent times entertaining the idea of getting a web site/page, blog so on, and want to learn exactly these things.

Actually, revising the other pages reminded me to ask about adding things like the directional arrows and circling objects.
How is that achieved, please?

Umm, you seem to say you get it, and then you ask again how to do it.  Again:

Can you post a link to a web page showing what you're talking about?

[ImnoGuru]

Sorry soybean. In one way I do get it, just not all of it.
I get that you can use the hyperlink, I can't see anything in there that shows me how to use the image as a hyperlink. Perhaps the Marquee? 
I can copy an image from a page now.
How do I convert the image to be displayed as a link, so that when someone hovers and then clicks, it takes them to a new page.... mine?

Here is a copy of directional arrows

1. Below the text box click Additional Options...
1.1  If replying in a thread, before putting text into the reply box select Preview



2. Click Browse

Ok copy isn't it then. Lets try hyperlink to page.

reply 2 bottom of page, red arrows
I know there were others in the system somewhere, I just can't find them at the moment.
In fact there is one on the page you referred me to.
Red arrow red square bottom of page
and then one I saw from Broni's post reply 4

Well at least I'm getting good at doing hyperlink additions.

On a side note, do I have to actually post a reply on a forum to test out my practicing of these operations or can I just use MS word or similar?
After all I don't want to tie up CH forums with practicing.

Many thanks to all that have helped me. ImnoGuru.

Code to just display an image:

Code: [Select]

[img width=364 height=57]http://www.computerhope.com/top4.jpg[/img]
Code to display an image as a hyperlink:

Code: [Select]

[url=http://www.computerhope.com/top4.jpg][img width=364 height=57]http://www.computerhope.com/top4.jpg[/img][/url]

[ImnoGuru]

Ahhh Yes I see the difference now. Thanks soybean.

The, URL= the hyperlink, is the location.
Then the next set of brackets displays the image, as a hyperlink.

Instead of writting something like  "Click Here".

Yes I believe I have it now.    

Thanks ImnoGuru.

Ok now then let me try a picture one then.. Here's hoping.
