Re: How to post images in your threads
 

It's a two-step process, perhaps best performed in two separate tabs on your web browser. First, you upload your image(s) somewhere. Second, you create a new post and insert them.

1. somewhere.

1. It could be one of many image hosting sites. After posting your image there, copy the URL of the image (instructions are usually found on the site).
2. It could be here on bananas.org, but heed the warning that space is limited. I down-scale my photos, usually to 720x540. To get started, click on the "Photo Gallery" link in the blue bar near the top of the screen. Then on the left-hand side click on "My Photos". Now on the right-hand side, click on "Upload Photos". Click the button(s) titled "Choose File" and upload one or more images from your computer. Enter a default title. Press the "Upload/Submit" button. A new page opens, and now you must press "Process". On the next page, you will see and icon of your uploaded image (and perhaps some of your other images). Click on the mini version of your image. In the display that opens you will see your image. Immediately under your image is the text "Code for bulletin boards:". Click on the coding in the text box and copy it.

2. insert. Create a new posting. In the text of your new posting, in the location you want the image to appear:

1. If you obtained your image from an image hosting site, then look above where you are entering text at the editor buttons and find the square with the yellow background depicting two mountains (). Click on it. Paste the URL from the hosting site in the box and click OK.
2. If you created the image on bananas.org, do not click on the insert image box but instead just paste the coding in your message.

I hope this helps!

Hi! The same thing has been happening to my pictures for years already. It says uploaded successfuly but in my albums there are no pictures. LOL.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

That's because you didn't specify an album. The pictures are all there, see View Mauro Gibo's gallery and see all of Mauro Gibo's photos

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Thank you very much Richard, I will try to post some photos. I don't know why but I already made many new albums but I couldn't upload any photo in the new albums like I used to do before. I'm kinda computer illiterate. Best Wishes, Mauro Gibo

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Can you post photos from an iPhone?

Susan

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Yes, but first they need to be downsized. I'd recommend 720 x 540.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Is there any way to post from iPhone only? My computer is giving me some problems. My computer was new in 2008 so it is probably time for a new one.

Susan

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Depending on the version of your iPhone, it should have a way to scale images.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

It's an iPhone 6+. It probably could but I don't know how. Just wondering if anyone else has posted with a iPhone?

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

I did it.:woohoonaner: I had to email a small size picture to myself and save it on my phone. Then I was able to go into gallery and upload copy paste it into post. Kind of backward but it worked. 😊

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

I always upload my banana related photos from my iPhone (5 and now the 6) without any sizing. Worked like a charm, but for some reason I need to use the PC for posting them into threads.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

My computer decided not to work so all I have is my phone. How do the photos look? 👍

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

I don't have to size when I download from my phone into the computer either. I'm just glad I can still post pictures. I'm not sure when I will be able to get a new computer. 😉

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

My first pic post.
Lets see if this works...

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

I gave up attempting any photos here. Making them smaller... whatever. Pointless. Never seems to work. I have plenty of pics on my FB page if anyone is ever bored. It's my name as it is here.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Nice bunch in your Avatar though :)

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Thanks. I would have never succeeded without you!!!

Trying to figure this out.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

I am about to give up too. (

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Oops, never mind, it actually worked. But I gave up with the photo gallery.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

how do you post photos from an iMac? or apple product?

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

At the top of the forum page click on 'photo gallery'.

Then on next page in 2nd header bar at far right click on 'upload photo'.

Use the upload links to the forum photo gallery. You can also upload to other data servers such as Photo Bucket. I have my own server.

**Take note of this page and specific note of file limits. Most cameras and phone cameras take pictures much larger than the 5200 kb limit. Either resize the photo to a few hundred Kb or reset the camera to take smaller photos. .... I use Corel Photo to resize my pics to 4" X 6" paper size & 150 dpi (dots per inch). This make a photo file size of few hunderd Kb which is very fast to load. Other photo programs can do the same and I believe iPhone can do the resizing on the phone.

To post the image in a thread use the BB code '[img]___URL___[/img]' without the single quote marks and no spaces. Use google for BB codes if you need more explanation on how to use or other codes to use.

The upload page has a 'help link' as well as a practice page.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Mac or Windows??

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

iOS - MAC

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

short answer..

resize the pics to small... try that.

There are a few workarounds with Mac.



For me it is easier to do a image hosting service....free so far......

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Does anyone know how to resize photos in the BB script? I used to code HTML like 20 years ago, and I know there is a way to do it. The pictures I upload from Flickr come out huge.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Hi all,

I've uploaded some images to my gallery but when I click on one (thumbnail), the image doesn't show. It does show extremely long codes for bulletin boards, html sites and wiki but when I use them, the image does not appear. Please help!!

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Your screenshot images might be too large.

I just tried your pics and get the same thing.

You have a thumbnail, but you have no image to use when you choose the html code for the post. Hmmmm

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Here's what I've discovered:
The initial images were screen captures and are png files, and they don't show up. Then I uploaded the original images and they do show up. However, they're placed sideways. When I use the editing tool to rotate them, an error message says "This page isn’t working. Bananas.org - International Banana Society is currently unable to handle this request. HTTP ERROR 500". After that, the thumbnail images don't show up.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

sorted.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

I saw that...yeh :woohoonaner:

Your file size is much smaller too.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

I've tried uploading photos into my gallery and it says they are uploaded but nothing is ever in my gallery.

Charles

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Did you see and click on the red box that says process? If not, they didn't really go thru. Probably because they are too big. try to get them down to about 1 meg in size each and try again.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

Thanks, that worked, they were too large.

Charles

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

I don't disagree with sputinc, but suggest reducing the pic size to 300 to 450 Kb. This will increase the speed the pics load up for the user/veiwer and increase the number of pictures by 3 Xs that can be stored in your limited storage space.


Many paint programs can easily reduce a picture's size. A free one called paint.net, if you need to download one. ... Reduce by setting the print size to 4" x 6" and the resolution to about 150 to 200 dpi (dot per inch). This size will normally fill the screen without having to use the sliders and still be very clear for viewing. Simply save the reformatted picture and then upload.

How to post an image on Bananas.org

So here's what I do:

1. Click on "Photo Gallery" on the blue menu bar near the top of the page ... Immediately to the right of "User CP".

2. Ok, now you have 2 blue menu bars, the original and (below an advertisement) a second which on the far right says "Upload Photos". Click on that.

3. Now you're looking at a two-column layout. On the left, notice where it says "Select the photos you wish to upload from your computer". To the right of it, click on the highlighted button that says "Choose File". Select the file you want and then click on the "Open" button-- or whatever on your device. The file name should be displayed to the right of the "Choose File" button.

4. Down at the bottom of the two-column form you'll see a button that says "Upload / Submit". Click on it.

5. Now you are looking at a page with two large buttons that say "Process" in red letters. Click on one of them.

6. Finally you get to a page that shows you images you have successfully uploaded. Click on the image you want to include in your post.

7. Underneath the image you see 3 text fields, the 1st of which is labeled "Code for bulletin boards:". Click on the text in the box ONCE. Now copy it, either by right-click on a Microsoft Computer or whatever means you have on your device.

8. Now travel to the post you wish to use the image in, and paste that text into your post.

9999. Take a moment to appreciate that 20 years ago this was the latest and simplest way to post an image in a bulletin board!

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

After some testing with different size of pictures ( 2.4Mb; 2.06 Mb; 1.99 Mb), it appears that maximum upload picture size is 2.0 Mb and not the 5.20 Mb stated in the upload instructions. See post http://www.bananas.org/f2/donetta-48...tml#post317707 for more detail.


Also, should you make an upload, get a notification the upload was successful but DO NOT get another page with a Red Process button; Then picture will not be processed into the Gallery. ... The upload was to the forum processing software, but because of size or another problem the picture was not placed into the Gallery for use.


Also, I believe the forum photo processor will resize large photos to a smaller forum standard. The 1.99 Mb photo I uploaded was down-sized to 97 Kb. If this is true I see no reason for the photo size upload limit (unless there are other software limitations).

Yes, and it seems everyone else but me is doing it so easy lol.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

I used the image tags and inserted the URL link to the image file. ... The problem with flickr is the image is hidden from visitor/guest. May be for the registered user (you) the link is given below the picture. However, the url link you posted is a referral page and not the image. That will not work with the img tags


... I had to find the image link in the webpage source and the java script to make the post above.

Re: How to post images in your threads
 

You did this several years ago. Your gallery has many photos a few years old. So is the gallery full? Are you pictures larger than 2000 Kb?
