Default Posting Pictures on AJOR .... a tutorial on how.

This is just a test post to see whether its all too confusing ... or even in the right section of AJOR ...

If you'se cant follow it ... I'll redo the photos or something.

So some quick feedback would be appreciated .... also, if someone has some other secrets on pic posting - make a comment and I'll include it in the process.

How to use AJOR to host and display your pics - will be in the next post.


Step One:

Prepare the photo...
Especially resize it ... 640 x 480 fits nice on the screen ... a gazillion by a bazillion megapix is annoying ..... coz I hate falling off my chair waving the mouse off the RHS end of the table trying to scroll across ...

Lots of free programmes to resize with - or you can use something flash like photoshop and do all sorts of stuff.

Common suggestion is also to blank/smudge your number plates AND anybody elses - in your photo .... as it might help prevent a knock on your door about your tyre sizes .... or something

Step Two:

If you have your pics on a website for storage ... posting is easy.

A/.. Simply highlight and copy, the photobucket/whatever url shortcut of your piccy .. Then return to the AJOR "post reply" window.

Step Three:

Using the AJOR facility.

A/.. Left click on the AJOR "insert image" icon indicated by the blue arrow
B/.. Delete and replace the highlighted letters in the pop up window by pasting the photobucket/whatever url shortcut into the box, as indicated by the red arrow,
C/.. Click on OK as indicated by the Yellow Arrow, and
D/.. Your piccy will be placed in your post ... wherever the cursor was when you stopped typing.
E/.. If need be - you can cut & paste the image entry to wherever you want in your post if you forgot to position the cursor where you wanted it previously.
F/.. Use the Preview Post button to check all is correct, and
G/.. Submit your post.
