| I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I read the directions, really! But when I hit the pics button, it tells me I have no pictures. (I just uploaded them to flickr) What am I missing? |

Never mind, I just figured it out. I had my nwhikers username instead of my flicker username. Now I'm in the in crowd--woo hoo! (except I'm not a very good photographer) Just posted my reflection pics on the reflection thread--what fun! |

Any reason why this doesn't display as a picture? |

I'm guessing it's the https

All other websites (including photobucket, websh#ts and imagestation)
- position your cursor where you want the image to display in your post
- just above where you post a message, click on the IMG button, paste the URL of the image, then OK
- that's it!
- to add an image description, use the following format: [img]url[/img]=some description |
Just a note (for me mostly  ) for photobucket:
in photobucket click on the DIRECT url then go to your post on NWHikers and click the IMG button and paste.

Yep, that's it for sure. I've run into the same issue, especially since many people and websites use https instead of the old http.
Just yesterday I was trying to upload a photo in my post Historic photos of Mount Baker National Forest
The source was:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Baker_National_Forest#mediaviewer/File:A_Rustic_Open_Front_Shelter_at_French_Creek_Forest_Camp,_Mount_Baker_National_Forest,_1936._-_NARA_-_299080.jpg
I got so frustrated with trying to upload it that I got on the wikipedia IRC help chat and no one knew what the problem was. Thought I was stupid or something.
Finally I noticed the "s". Cut it out, and the photo loaded.
Tom, is there some way for you to allow https as well as http?

dropbox test
OK, what am I doing wrong?
| Code: |
| [img]https://www.dropbox.com/s/2whlrdkcsxuc2m2/IMG_0914.jpg[/img] |
|
See here for an explanation: http://ryanmo.co/2013/11/03/dropboxsharedlinks/
Basically you need to change www.dropbox to dl.dropboxusercontent
Alternatively, append ?dl=1 to your link - this may have some undesirable side effects since this is the dropbox download link
note what happens if you go to the download link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2whlrdkcsxuc2m2/IMG_0914.jpg?dl=1
 changed prefix to dl.dropboxusercontent  also works with ?dl=1 added |

| Is there a trick to using Google+? Image is public and I can see it fine with the url I used, but it didn't show up in my post. Uploaded to Imgur and it worked fine. |

| Fustrated.. Trying to set up from Picasa, what user name am I supposed to use my NW Hikers or Picasa, I just opened it with my google account so I don't have a username in picasa? Not sure why this site we have to go to a separate site, every forum I am on can download directly to the site even PDXHIKERS. Just frustrated I can't get this to work is all. : ( |

Got it figured out, I had to back out of the forum and let it reset once I
made my Picasa Album . Now I can post my photo in trail talk.
