Picasa Link

[jrdallas]

Edit: Figured it out with trial and error. You have to cut off the first part of the HTML tag in Picasa and use the image tags. I used the right click properties url link, but that didn't work. It's different than the HTML shortcut image. ??


OK, I can't seem to figure out how to link in-line images from Picasa. First two links below are the options in Picasa (no BB specific code option available that I see), but no inline image shows. The HTML code works fine in another forum. Does this forum allow HTML image links to display as an image??

The image that is showing is from Putfile with their BB code and it works. I like Picasa, but can someone explain how to post in-line pics from Picasa?

Putfile code apparently works with or without the [url] tags. First is just the image link and it works.

JR, you have to edit the href version a little, basically you just want the image part

so:

img]http://lh5.google.com/jrswan1/RzqFLDU2ONI/AAAAAAAAAiM/YGVGscKk33Q/s144/Dells%2002%20052.jpg[/img

surrounded by the img tags

Also as a side note the "s144" part is what decides the size you can have s144,s288,s400, and s800 to post the picture in different sizes using essentially the same link

Thanks Duck! I was previewing an edit over and over and finally stumbled on the right combo. Thanks! The wife can post some Boddington travels now or maybe tomorrow.
