jjhains Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 I am a new member, just signed up. I wanted to share my pictures, but I am not sure how to upload to this site, so here is the link to my photo bucket at the end of the post. I bought this truck new in 1978, in NorthBay, Ontario, Canada at Bert Simpson Motors... a then Datsun dealer. I have just purchased another 1979 620 California Step Side, which is in quite decent condition that I am planning on restoring. http://s205.photobucket.com/albums/bb183/johnhains/?action=view¤t=1978Datsun.jpg John Quote Link to comment
fontana620 Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Welcome, try this. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you'd like to include pictures within your posts and/or would like to maintain your own independent photo album, this guide is for you. (This will also allow people to see your images without having to be logged in). There are many places to host pictures including Yahoo!'s flickr.com, Google's Picasa and Photobucket. I'll focus on the later, as it's the easiest to suss out for posting pictures on a forum such as this one. 1. The first step is obviously to create an account on your desired image host. For this example we're using Photobucket. Navigate to http://photobucket.com and click the "join now" button. Fill out the signup form to start your account. 2. Now that you've started an account, you can upload photos to your album. Go to "My Account" and you'll be presented with the option to upload pictures. If you don't see a link for "My Account," go back to the front page http://photobucket.com/ and you'll see it as a tab, or you'll need to sign in. Once you've clicked the link, you'll see a few buttons which read "Choose Fle." Click them and select the picture(s) you'd like to upload, when you are done choosing the pictures to upload, click the "Upload" button. Once the status bar reaches 100%, you'll have photos in your album! 3. Scroll down in your album, and you'll see the images you just uploaded. Underneath each image should be various shortcuts, the one we're interested in for posting on this forum is "IMG Code." Copy that content and paste it into your posts -- it's that easy. (If anybody can improve on this guide, by all means, do so). __________________ Quote Link to comment
