Photo posting site
« on: September 09, 2009, 05:12:48 PM »
There is a website that is super for posting the occasional photo. Much easier than Photobucket.

Give this a look, and I'll bet you will be posting away with your photos.
Look at this:  http://tinypic.com/

When you hit the 'browse' button, you can cruise through your computer to pick out your photo. I put the photo I want to post on the desktop, so I can find it without any searching.

Once you have found the photo on your computer and selected it, below is a 'resize' button, which you should select for 'message board'.

Then hit 'upload now'





When that has processed, a screen will come up with choices for you to copy. Pick the second one down, the IMG code for message boards. Copy that whole sentence and paste that into your message here on the ALR.





While this is simple to use, it does not have the depth of features that Photobucket has. But it is very fast and easy to use. I use TinyPic to illustrate a quick idea or make a point, but keep my important photos on my own site, or Photobucket.

I realize that this has little to do with building, but I posted it here because I have read several times in the past few days folks wanting to post pictures. This is an alternative to Photobucket.

I'll move this over to tutorials in a while.

Thanks,
Tom
