OK so I'm using my phone and I'm not sure if I can upload this way. I have set up a Photobucket and uploaded pics to it. I just can't seem to ptransfer them over from the bucket to RS, thanks. Reefer1

Ok I can't figure it out or my handheld won't allow me to do it. Thank you for you help and the link to the other post. I'm kind of computer illiterate so I'm sure its just error on my part, I'll keep tryin to figure it out but if anybody else on here uploads photos from a droid please PLEASE help me out. Thanks, reefer1

once you get a pic loaded...

you can also right click on it & select properties... then add the address...

with this wrapped around it & it will work... I left off the start [ so you can see the syntax - img] ... [/img]

example

when you add the [ in front of the ablove line... a pic shows up

once more possibility... when you are brand new here... a RS admin, has to one time "set a switch" to allow links & to allow pics... I think... to stop bots. BigAl could do this or check on it... just saw you joined today...

I looked and looked and it's not the "SpamBot" issue. Maybe it's a PB vs Handheld issue?

Ok so I think I've figured it out, but when I paste the url in my post it shows up as the actual url on not a pic? Even if I select the preveiw post option. Is this normal?

Does it have the code before and after the URL ?

Try one here and even if it doesn't show up I can look behind you and see what's happening.. maybe :)

To post a bigger pic... when you upload the pic to photobucket... do this...

on the main screen ... right under "Upload Images & Videos"

there is a button "more options" click on this and you will see...
