I think I know why some tests fail.  Ignore the additional options button below the white text box.  After copying the image code paste in this white box.  The image code will show up as an unreadable code.  That's it you have done it.  It really is that simple.  Dominick

Also if you hit "preview" button you'll see your phot come up not the code.

You have to do the photobucket thing Dustin. I don't know of any other way.

If you need to resize a photo, by far the easiest program I've found is:

Can someone tell me how to rotate pictures??

I feel like such an Idiot but I just can not  figure it out........

[theswimmer]

I just post from my computer and they are correct when I post.
When the post shows up on the site they sometimes are 90 degrees off.

Obviously, there are a ton of photo programs out there --

And I may be doing an extra step that is not needed --

I use free photobucket --

If on my iPad -- just take a pic with the iPad -- go to PB -- add the image to your bucket -- it will automatically be resized and oriented properly.

If on my desktop -- have found sometimes things are a little clunkier, probably due to still using Win7 -- but here is what I do.

Make sure the orientation is right when you store the pic -- go into another free program I use called Picasa -- grab the photo and it will be automatically stored in a folder on your desktop for later access -- and Picasa will automatically resize, and confirm orientation for any future use -- particularly when emailing or uploading to PB.

Like I said, there may be, very likely are -- better programs out there -- but for now this is free, easy, and dead simple.  I have around 1300 photos stored in my bucket at PB -- and that is only 1/3 of my storage capacity until they start charging me.  At that point, I will just store the photos somewhere else -- then empty the cache bucket, and start over.

The idea behind using photobucket -- pics are stored somewhere else besides Alan's site, so his storage and bandwidth is not used up on his website host -- and I have access to the pics for other applications besides AT.com.

You may be doing all of this -- but unless the pics are Internet ready, they may not orient properly, because they are too large of a format, for no reason.

Best,

Fred
