:confused: I was wondering if anyone could help me. I am IT challenged and know nothing about HTML, UBB codes, etc. and so please understand this when I ask my question. How do you put images on replies and is it possible to put a gremlin(not one stored on 7 Days) on a reply? Any help or basic explaination would be much appreciated. :wall: I have tried those strings of words and brackets but when I preview my post the image is not brought up.

Hi Milli

when you're typing your message, there's a series of buttons down below called Instant UBB Code, click on the Image button, it will pull up a small window where you can put the link to the image. The easiest way to get the link is to right click on the image that you want, click on properties, around the middle will be a line that says Address (URL), just copy and paste that address into the window and Voila! there's your picture.

Thanks--I can now put an image on a reply! As for the gremlins--when I right click on one of those images I don't get properties just copy smilie graphic or copy smilie HTML.

If you can give us a link to the page with the smilie you want, I can show you how to display it here.

as an afterthought, there are some sites that don't allow you to link to their pictures, like webshots.

You guys are being really patient ;) The smilies are from a downloadable program SmileyCentral.com

Hi Milli:

If you want to link an image to display on the forum, the image must be stored somewhere on the web.
If you downloaded a program and the smilies you wish to use are on your own computer, you cannot link them to a post.
Depending on the file format of the smilie, you can post it to Imagestation or Photobucket or other website (NOT webshots) and link from there.

Thanks Milli:

In case you or anyone else is, or was, wondering what you are referring to I deleted the post before your reply, because as soon as I had posted saying that I could not see mine and Steve YYZ's avatars, they immediately reappeared. I think it must be a problem with my son's ISP.

Everything seems to be fine now, but thanks for your speedy response.

Heck Milli - you've deleted your posting now - this is so funny!!!

My avatar has gone again I notice.

Where is Millybess? - I've gone totally blonde.

:rof: Hey Bellagio--I won't delete this one. Your Avatar is fine here.

Thanks so much Milli.

Had a real blonde moment back there. Obviously Millybess being away has affected me badly. :rof: :rof:

Hopefully, this will be me soon. You just have to pretend their hemlocks instead of palms.
