What the @#%$ am I doing wrong?

Post by geezer101 »

I have this thing in front of me that looks like a typewriter with a tv screen on top of it. Since using it I have visited a wonderous place called sigma-galant.com and have liked everything I've seen. So I used the advice about posting pictures to visit another land called photobucket. I was even able to take pictures from my photo album and make them into an album at this place! But when I ask the typewriter thing to move pictures from photobucket land to sigma-galant land, it turns my pictures into a red box with an"X" in it (I did not know I took so many pictures of this red box, it doesn't even look that cool). The images are all scans (.jpg) Example- if I enter my image "http://s1089.photobucket.com/albums/i35 ... an0001.jpg" it turns into a red box. What the @#%$ am I doing wrong? :hit:

photobucket has IMG codes under each of the photo's in your album, when you click on them it will automatically copy them for you, so just paste it into your sigma-galant thread and it should work

It has to look like this to work:
[img]http://s1089.photobucket.com/albums/i35 ... an0001.jpg[/img]

If it has the [img] at the start, and the [/img] at the end, then it recognises it as a pic.

It's the same for quote's [quote] [/quote] and links [url] [/url].
