want to post image from my harddrive

but the browse button so clearly described in the attachment instructions is NOT present. no, i don't have a home page to upload the pics for the http thing

am i missing something, i have used this feature on other BBS's.

and, before you chastise me, i tried a half dozen searches trying to find the info, but when 2600 hits fire out at ya, and most have nothing to do with what i am looking for.........................

i have this case and Prometeia device i want you all to look over, a work in progress, almost finished.

thanks

baldy:D

I don't believe there's an attachment function on SF. If you want a couple pics hosted you can email me ([email protected]) as an attachment, I'll post em up for you.

My advice is to open up a free account at www.netfirms.com They allow image linking and a fairly good amount of hosting space.

uhh..well first thing you need to do is simply upload the pictures onto a website so that the picture has its own link....then you do this:

hope that helps :)

I think bldegle2 was referring to the 'attachment' function of VBulletin. Normally VBull lets you upload images to the forum for display, but the function is disabled here at SF. He already mentioned he doesn't have a host.

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but.. I registered for the free account at netfirms.com and already have an FTP program. I'm having trouble uploading though. I keep getting permission denied messages. Can anyone help?

here's what i did...just go to your ftp site (ftp://*yoursite*.netfirms.com). you'll get the error when yuo go to the site, but then right click the blank screen, and click, login as...then you can enter your netfirms name and password, and from there you can just do copy/paste as if it was a regular windows explorer browser.

Thanks. I'm still having some problems and sent you a PM so as not to further hijack this thread.
