Keeping Up Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Although I don't use Photobucket, I wonder if you're getting the {img} tags generated twice over? Note I'm using curly brackets instead of square ones because otherwise this message will think I'm trying to post a picture! When you compose the message her on CWDF, it adds the tags {img} and {/img} (both in square brackets) at the ends of the URL. But on Photobucket it also adds those tags if you click on the "IMG code" line, so you would get them twice over. So instead, just press on the "direct link" line in Photobucket, copy that and paste it in the box that appears when you have pressed the "insert image" button on the CWDF message that you're composing.

Mac of Cygnet Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 I agree with Allan. If you choose the 'for forums' option for links in Photobucket, it will produce the [ img ] when it is superfluous. You could I think choose one of the other options, but I simply remove the extra Mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks Sue Sorry if I have failed the idiots test What I did in this case was simply copy the code including the [ img ] bits from your photobucket link, and pasted it here, without going through the 'insert image' process in the forum. In fact I think I might do this always in future. It's a lot simpler than overcoming the obstacles that Vista puts in my way. Quite surprised I was let into your Photobucket account, though, but perhaps I'm misunderstanding the nature of Photobucket accounts.
