Can a photo be attached to a "Topic"

Post by randyveach »

Sometimes it's easier to attach a photo to a message to clarify the message (similar to attachments to an e-mail)? If yes, how to you do that?

Hi Randy, The easiest method is to setup a photo hosting account which gives the image a hyperlink, and insert the hyperlink in the image code. This may sound complex but it's really easy.

I use imageshack, there url is here: https://imageshack.com/

after uploading an image it shows the code next to the image, you can copy it over to the topic here and the picture will show.

Good luck

I have been working on getting the new bulletin board phpbb software up for a while now....which should help with uploading larger image sizes.

Right now you should be able to upload images to your album here on this site....but they can't be very big.

Then you can copy the URL of the image and use the IMG button when posting to display the image in the post.
