Title: Sending pics in messages ???
Post by: seminolewind on November 26, 2013, 05:21:28 am
Maybe I'm a couple fries short of a happy meal but can't figure out how to send pics to someone when I am sending them a PM. I know there's a way since KHal sent me some a while back.
Any help?

I don't have a photobucket account, but rather have just been going to the section under the message body where you can browse and make an attachment...just don't see that option when I'm sending a PM  >:(

Yeah, there's a better way to do it.  The better way requires you to host the picture somewhere on the internet.  I use my facebook to host pictures.  You can use imgur too.  Creating an account is easy.  Anyway, if you're taking a picture from facebook you can just right click the picture and choose "copy image location" then you click on this little icon (http://www.primitivearcher.com/smf/Themes/default/images/bbc/img.gif) that will give you this:  You past the image location between the two bracketed items.  Should look something like this:

Best way to figure one of those out is just to mess with it.  mess with it a lot!  I've had mine since summer and I'm just starting to get comfortable with it
