How do I send pictures on the Forum

[Chicago Discus]

Hello everyone just wondering how you guys send all these great photos on this Forum I can't figure it out thanks Josie

Open a photo bucket account.

Upload pics and videos to photobucket.

Copy and paste the image link on the photo bucket site of your image on your post on this site.

On photo buckets site when you move your cursor over the image you'll get 4 options to choose from, I think you select the one that starts with [image.

It's one of the options. There's only 4 options just try them till you get the correct one.

Go to a less used area on the site and make a new thread and practice till you figure it out.

Make a new folder on your desktop and label it simply discus so that when you are loading and unloading pictures the folder is easy to find.

If you have a smart phone, download the application called tapatalk and use your phone to take pics and post here. It's really easy.

Good luck.

I have just came across this and wondered what Tapatalk was as i've seen it at the bottom of some threads...I have just downloaded it now ready for when my new fish arrive, can you use it for an avatar photo as well?

[Sean Buehrle]

I'm not sure about that.

I don't think tapatalk allows you to go into you're account settings.

You can just upload pics off your phone to the pc and then apply an avatar to your account here.

tapatalk application is how some smart phones POST into the forum

They look pretty cool, did you increase the color in that pic or is that what they look like normally.

I just took this pic on my iPhone, I'm not sure why they turned out like this because they are more the standard brown! The tank does have a blue and white tube running so it could be something to do with that. They are nice looking fish for runts and eat everything that gets chucked in for them!

Look at the scroll line below your picture.

I'm tripping that was the whole pic. Thank you

If you need a Avatar then you will probably have to resize the photo. Here is a great site for sizing a photo for Avatars. Just use the default 200 in the size field and it will be just right for Simply.

This may work better...Click to view. Photo bucket videos do not hold their aspect ratio.
