Read this first: As a matter of fact, the title "how to post a picture on this forum.." is a little misleading: You cannot post a directly to this forum, what you do is simply make the picture visible on this forum while including the URL surrounded by the Image================================================================================================================================================

1. Before doing anything else, resize your picture to a maximum size of 1024x1024 pix, everything that suits inside this size, will work fine.
Save your file as a jpeg file and upload it to your ftp server as explained briefly here above.

2.Log in to the forum with your user name and password

3. Click on "new topic" to start a new topic with text and eventually images
or
click on "postreply" to react to an existing topic, eventually while adding images.

4. Enter a subject description in the subject window (f.i. "A macro from this morning with D300 &tamron90mm)

5. Type text in the text window if you want to...

6. Add the URL of the image you want to add in your topic or reaction, f.i.: http://www.myphotogallery.name/fotosOpForum/ma21.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Image

7. Click the whole URL, (as you do when you copy/paste...)

Image


8. While the whole URL is blue, click on the "Img" button.Automatically "Image

9. you will see as this sample text: Image

11. You will see this: (sample) eventually with the sample text you see below this sample picture...
