Photos in forum threads?

[ramrod]

Hi,

I have posted up a thread about a DM screen but the photos will only come up as links and not actual photos.

Is it possible to get photos to show in the actual thread?

Just use an IMG tag instead of a URL tag. If the images are screen-stretchingly large, you ought to put SPOILER tags around them.

At a test, yes.

Open each picture in flicker, click the share button (looks like a box with an arrow pointing from the center to the top right, takes for-evah to load.)

click the thumbtack/pin button. Choose the size you want to link it as, copy/paste the code in the text field below, voila.

I'm super jealous - that is a masterwork DM screen

Thanks - hope you got to see all of the other photos on the main thread. Now that people have shown me the light on how to post the photos properly, you can now see them with the text and without having to open a gazillion tabs!

Thanks for the help!
