How to use your photobucket account:
to upload a picture from your computer:
on the right side of the screen you should see a form like this:
select the image you want to upload by clicking on the button on the right....once you've selected the picture press ok
you should now see this:
you can now add a title for the image (not necessary) by typing it into the box....
you can upload more than one picture at a time....just repeat the steps using the second box....if you want to upload more than 3 pictures at once press "+ add more" in the bottom right corner and you'll get more boxes....
to upload a picture from a web URL:
uploading a picture from an URL works more or less the same than uploading one from your own computer...
in the menue on top of the upload form in photobucket click on "web url"
copy the URL of the image (right click on the image and select copy image adress) and paste it into the box....
you should now see a small version of the picture beside the box....
once you've finished selecting what you want to upload press "upload"
you should now get this:
when the pictures all have been uploaded they should be visible at the bottom of the page:
How to use the pictures:
below each of the pictures you get boxes with different codes....for you the URL Link and the IMG Code are the ones of interest...
the URL Link basically is the Image adress...so you can use this one e.g. for setting an image as your avatar on CF....
for posting you use the IMG Code...
if you click on the box with the code it should automatically copy it (unless you use Opera) so all you have to do is paste it into your posts, guestbook entries or signature....
How to use the sub albums:
sub albums are more or less folders you can create to make it easier for you to find images in your account...
to create a new one use the form below the upload box:
pick a name and click "submit"
JUST BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU MOVE PICTURES WITHIN THE ACCOUNT - IF YOU ARE ALREADY USING THE IMAGE SOMEWHERE THE LINK WILL BREAK IF YOU MOVE IT AROUND IN YOUR ACCOUNT!
to move a picture either select it by ticking the little box beside the image name above the code boxes....or select them all at the bottom of the page...
click on "move selected" at the bottom of the page
select the sub album you want them moved to from the drop down menue...and press "move"
that should be the most important things....if you have any questions or problems just pm me....
