Need HELP

[metallicaguns]

I think I have asked this before, but I keep forgetting.

How do you post pictures into a LJ post using a LJ link.

Like.. " Picture of Me" <--- that would be the link to click on.

Any help would be nice.

I also use AOL, which you can use FTP. If anyone knows how to do that, gimmie a holla.

Thanks.

Assuming you have a place hosting your photo somewhere, of course.

Get a photobucket account. It makes it sooooo easy. Go here photobucket. When you're done and upload pics to it, the img src tag will be right under the pic. Yay for copy and paste ;)

OR if you just want to post a picture so that it appears right in your journal entry, without making a link to it, use the img src tag...example being...

<*img src="*http://www.examplesite.com/exampleblahblah.jpg">

That will directly post the pic, without people having to click to see it.

Then we run into LJ cuts, 'cause if pics are big, it kinda wonks with people's friend's lists and they tend to not like that, so putting them beind a cut is always nice.

<*lj-cut text="Pictures"> or whatever you want the cut text to say. Then when you want to close off the cut, type <*/*lj-cut>

Just remove the stars. If this doesn't post properly, I'll have to delete and try again, but hopefully it will ;)

I think photobucket it way easier.
