Title: me=computer idiot
Post by: Ingy on January 09, 2012, 10:10:04 AM
I hope I'm not stomping on someone's toes doing this, but since I'd rather be messing around in boats than fighting a computer here is the site to get to my pics:
  http://Ingy1.photoshop.com
can't even figure out how to get this done.  Oh well time to go work on the foam for the v-berth.  Never have to worry about too many posts from me.
Better to lurk around and learn I guess, or maybe once in a while try to give some info that may help someone.

Idiot?  Not at all, Ingy.  That's as good a way as any to share your photos with us.  And, you've posted some nice shots.   :)

LOL, Ingy - a Grog for you, hope it helps... :)

To add your pictures (or pictures from elsewhere on the web), when on the screen which allows you to create/edit a post:

1) Where it says Add BBC tags: , click on the little icon which looks like a picture frame. This one: (http://sailfar.net/forum/Themes/classic/images/bbc/img.gif)

2) Clicking that puts the following into your post: [img][/img]

3) Click between [img] and [/img], insert the picture address, and it should show up when you post.

For example, the picture below is from your album, its address is: http://api.photoshop.com/v1.0/accounts/799aed4e065e44ec918e0dc8a268ddaa/assets/25ad84b4ceb149b9a076a9592f852ee9/renditions/1024.jpg?md=1325438204000 (I got the address by right-clicking the picture, and selecting "Copy Image Location". I use Firefox as my browser, Internet Explorer or Chrome probably phrase that differently, to mean the same thing.)

Putting that address between the [img] and [/img], like so: [img]http://api.photoshop.com/v1.0/accounts/799aed4e065e44ec918e0dc8a268ddaa/assets/25ad84b4ceb149b9a076a9592f852ee9/renditions/1024.jpg?md=1325438204000[/img], makes this happen:

Hope that helps!

BTW - I remember back in the late 70's & early 80's, sending off every year for the Luger catalog. It was part of all the sailboat literature and sales brochures I stared at when I should otherwise have been doing schoolwork... ;D
