3 questions about using photbucket.

[quickhorse]

1. Do your pictures have to remain in your albums for them to veiwed for any length of time on the forum? While learning how to use photobucket and upload to the forum I noticed that they go away when you delete them from your album.

2. If you use the clickable mode to expand the picture I was able to access my album. Does everyone on the forum have the same access?

3. How do upload a picture from photobucket for my avatar. When I tried just a red x shows where my avatar is supposed to be.

Thanks for any help and advice.

Currently the URL you are trying to use for your Avatar is

http://http//i1233.photobucket.com/albums/ff396/quickhorse/thedude-1-1.jpg

I would think the correct URL should be (I have to type it on 2 lines to get the full URL to show correctly here)

http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/ff396/

quickhorse/thedude-1-1.jpg

Notice how the beginning is different.

But when I tried that URL I couldn't find your avatar

I don't use photobucket for my avatar, so I can't answer specific questions about photo bucket.......but I can see your image URL might have been the problem. You also have to make sure the image is smaller than 80 x 80 pixels.

Hang in there....you're actually quite close.

I forgot to mention.....the photos have to remain in your album as long as you want them to remian on the net. Once you delete them from your album.....they they will change into red X's anywhere you put those pics on the net.

So keep that image for your avatar in your album.....if you delete it....then your avatar will become a red X.

Wow! thanks. How did you do it?

If I use clickable images (to expand) will everybody have access to my personal photobucket album? Right now when I clicked on one of my images it took me back to albums.

Your URL for the image was a bit off.

I don't actually have any idea how things work on Photobucket, so I can't answer that question for ya'...sorry.
