I have just finished compiling an updated picture posting tutorial for the FAQs forum - http://www.ncwoodworker.net/forums/f...at-free-18006/
I hope it will help folks when they want to post their pictures in a thread.
Y'all got no excuses now 
Let's see your pictures

The default seems to be Direct link. I know I can click switch link type but I'm just trying to save a key stroke. I guess I'm lazy. |

The default seems to be Direct link. I know I can click switch link type but I'm just trying to save a key stroke. I guess I'm lazy. AFAIK there isn't a way to change the default link setting. It probably should be set to the BBCode links as that is the simplest method. Maybe one of our genius programmers can figure that out, and make that change.

Name: Rob City: Hendersonville State: NC County: Henderson Join Date: Nov 2005 Age: 66 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 6.84 over 180 days | Anyone can set these options in their Control Panel. The easiest way to get there is to use the Site Navigation sliding menu on the left and go to My NC WW > Edit My Options. In the new window that opens, scroll to the very bottom and select either BBCode or Direct for your Photo Gallery Picture Links Default Type. Remember to press the Save Changes button at the bottom of the page.
This is a very important screen -- for example, be sure to fill in your full name, address and (optionally) e-mail address for becoming eligible for DQ status.
HTH...

HTH... Thanks McRabbet. I followed your advice and it works like a charm. Using BBCode saves a few keystrokes when posting pics. |

David, the one on the left of your North Carolina Woodworker screen that says "site navigator". Put your cursor on that and it brings up a menu, then click on My North Carolina Woodworker, then on edit my options. |

Name: Michael City: Raleigh State: NC County: Wake Join Date: Nov 2006 Avg Visit Freq/Week = 5.44 over 180 days | Dave, thanks for the help but I was really expecting some YouTube links to videos of you walking us through the necessary steps. I know that you are savy enough and have the personality for it. Let me guess, putting on your pants at the computer was too much to ask
Just kidding buddy. Thank you for doing this. I always forget in between postings. |
