I have two issues that I need help with:

1) I can only have 10 photos in my album, and the site won't give me option to upload any more. I also can't start another album.
Is this because of my lowly status? (Bush League Private)

2) Lately, when I try to make a post and put a photo on it using the url address and photo insertion icon (same way I've always done it), it won't show the photo and gives this instead in the preview:

rel="Lightbox"?attachmentid=20797&d=1323653352" border="0" alt="" class="tcattdimgresizer" onload="NcodeImageResizer.createOn(this);" />

Yes.

You need to post the BB Code with the image url inside

Example:



http://www.reptileradio.net/reptileradio/picture.php?albumid=509&pictureid=3248



Which will give you this:

http://www.reptileradio.net/reptileradio/picture.php?albumid=509&pictureid=3248

Please let me know if I can assist further.

Thanks Larry, for the expedient reply.

In regard to #1...how many posts before I can move up...that is, add more photos to my album? I currently keep delating photos from my album here to add a new one.

In regard to #2...I am using EXACTLY the process you have outlined, and when I hit "preview post", it give me the message I showed above:

rel="Lightbox"?attachmentid=20797&d=1323653352" border="0" alt="" class="tcattdimgresizer" onload="NcodeImageResizer.createOn(this);" />

This happens when I use a photo from some URL other than BLBC. The only photos it will let me post are ones I use from my album here on BLBC.

Thanks again,
John

John,
choose the picture you want, then right click and choose "copy image url"

paste it here and put [img] tags before and after

Another alternate to right clicking is to actually click on the picture that's in your photo album and then copying the url and pasting it here in text box.

Thanks John, I missed the follow up...

Hey guys, thanks for the help, however, I don't think you are understanding what is happening to my account. I post photos a lot on other websites, and have been doing this for a long time, and so I know how to do it. (believe me, I have posted more photos on reptile websites then I'd like to admit (LOL).

It just isn't working here on my account here at BLBC, with photos from non-BLBC URL. Also, it keeps adding and [backslash url] after I have typed a URL address, even though I am not typing these brackets in.
I can't demonstrate what is happening because when I type the HTML code for photo insertion it comes out different, but I'll try to demonstrate below:

For example, Here is what I type in the message:
[in this bracketed box I would type "img" as you describe above] [url]http://www.moreliapythons.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=20795&d=1323652724[in this box I would type "/img"]

And here is exactly what comes out in the message preview:
rel="Lightbox"?attachmentid=20795&d=1323652724" border="0" alt="" class="tcattdimgresizer" onload="NcodeImageResizer.createOn(this);" />

I guess I need to ask...can one only post images from the BLBC photo albums on this website?

Hi John, I post all my photos from a photo hosting account like Photobucket or Imageshack.
I don't use the BLBC photo albums at all.

yep- i use direct upload (something like photobucket) too.

just upload it and then take the code they have for forums and copy and paste em in ur post. then it should be no problem at all.

doesnt take a minute

Have you tried using the "insert image" button on the post options? [ it's at the top near the font options ]

Sorry if you tried this already & it's not working.

I use my own web hosting space for images...so you don't have to use BLBC. [ I didn't even realize I had an album on here lol ] ~

Hi Larry,

Normally info on Epicrates is featured with the Sand, Rosy and Rubber Boas, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Did I miss something?

Thanks!
