[tangent]

Ive figured out how to upload an attachment, that shows up as a thumbnail, but how to you post the pictures that are slightly larger into your thread?

This is a really good discussion. We were actually thinking about doing away with the attachment option in favor of online photo albums.

 

Some of the options include:

• Flickr (yahoo)
  
• Photobucket
  
• Picassa (google)

After you start an online photo album, it's just a matter of linking the file. To do so, you first find where the picture is in your album (www.example.com/album/picture.jpg). (Usually the albums give you the URL in a little box -- I think Photobucket is the best one for displaying the direct URL to the photo). Then, all you have to do is surround it in with the tag, or click the "insert image" button at the top of this text editor and enter the URL into the box (which will automagically do the same thing for you).

OK, let me try this then....

nope, didn't work for me....

Jason, that is because what you put inside the tag is a web page, not an image. The image will end in .jpg, .gif, .png, etc. .php is a web page, almost always.
