Awesome variety Joe! Can't wait to see your garden in full on beast mode. I have a lot of varieties sown from seeds I got from you. I'm excited to see how they all turn out. I'll be sure to follow your shenanigans Joe.

having problems posting them always have from day one
can you help?

Spicegeist · Feb 23, 2013

Sure... do you have a smart phone with a camera or are you uploading pics to your computer from a camera?

Either way, you'll need to get them to a third party site, I use photobucket.com. Once you upload your pic to that site (you'll need to set up an account there), click on "IMG Code" and then it automatically copies the link, insert that ("paste" it) into your text here and voila we'll all see your pics...

right from my computer im still using XP

i hate photo sites too often your pics get stolen and used without your consent not that i have that much of an issue with it so it looks like im not posting pics, i just change providers and im having a harder time than ever
Please admins dont give a warning point for this im not looking for trouble, but there is another site (name withheld) that has automatic picture cropping and i can take my pics right from my computer. why cant this site do the same i just cant seem to get a straight answer on this, everyone keeps saying i gotta use a photo site that's just a pain, im not trying to be critical but why cant they just make it easy?

thanks anyway
your friend Joe

A lot of forums don't have the storage space to host tons of photos....

I have a photobucket app on my phone. Send photo to photobucket, then do like Spice said...copy direct link on photobucket, then click img icon here, paste it in, and there it is...

Takes a bit longer, but it can work ok. You do get bigger and higher quality photos this way though.

If you don't want to register for another site, you can use tinypic.com. The front page there has a "browse" button where you can select the desired image file on your computer. Select it, then click "upload now". You'll then see a page that has, among other things, some text that reads "IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards". It will be in the form of [ IMG]<a tinypic URL>[/IMG ] (without the extra spaces after/before the first and last brackets.) Copy all that code and paste it into THP and you're done. Make sure to keep that code in a text file on your computer somewhere, along with a description of the image, because I sure don't know how else to ever again find the image on tinypic (not that you really need to).

I don't know how tinypic handles large files. Before uploading, I open large files in Preview on my Mac and then "save as" a different name and select "least quality". That saves a several MB file to only a few hundred KB size.

I'm new to this picture posting thing, too, but this has worked for me. Someone else may be able to comment on drawbacks of this approach, for example, how long the images will remain hosted by tinypic.

thanks but i guess i dont wanna fuss like that

i guess im not going to post pics, besides i already have other troubles,since i got a new provider i now cant even post pics on the other site, im not a computer wiz and sure dont have the time or Patience for such thing and there are many more like me in the same boat, i wanna contribute financially to this site eventually and especially when i get my business started, but i just dont care for the picture posting system,i really dont wanna sound like im complaining i still love this site but it can and should be made easier for folks who dont have the time or what have you

thanks your friend Joe

Hammerfall · Feb 24, 2013

Why don't you just use Google+ ? It is free and there is an app that lets them download automatically from your phone right to Googles site. You don't have to do anything but post the URL inside the IMG tags. Simple.

I have thousands of photos up there.
