Re: Help needed please
 

I thought that the only thing I could use was the copy and paste and that would only work so I can put the stuff in my pictures so in my document?

Re: Help needed please
 

Yep, you should be able to :)

Re: Help needed please
 

The thing I wanted to use it for is like when someone has a birthday and you can put the birthday pic up or say for smilies that you cant do with pictures that you can do with photobucket and thats why I was trying it out today

Re: Help needed please
 

Ok, so ...

You don't actually want to save the pictures locally (on your machine).

You want to include a picture from the Internet in a post?

If you tell me exactly what you're trying to do, and with what, it will make it a whole lot easier :) We could be going round in circles all night otherwise :D :D

In fact, provide a link here to an image that you're talking about and tell me what you want to do with it and we'll go from there :)

Re: Help needed please
 

When you go to photobucket you set up the images you want and then in files and then You copy to save them but I dont know where to they save to. If you save them to the pictures in the documents then they become fiddly to try and post them to a website but using photobucket seems way easier if I could just the funtion right and where they actually go to once you press copy.

At that point im totally lost

Re: Help needed please
 

If you're right-clicking on an image and then selecting 'copy' you aren't saving that image to anywhere that you can use it, other than to 'paste' it into another document - which you're said is 'fiddly'.

If you have a picture in photobucket and you can find the 'URL' for it (that is, the web address for the specific picture that you want) then you can use that address to insert the picture into a post.

Again, if you can link me to an example in Photobucket I can probably show you how to do it - at the moment though I'm flying blind because I'm still not 100% sure that we're both talking about the same thing . . . sorry.

Re: Help needed please
 

No your getting the right idea of exactly what I want to do. I will try and link you the photobucket

Ok, so .....

You are saying that you might want to do something like this:

Re: Help needed please
 

When you hover over the image it says IMG code with a box next to it with writing in it, right click the writing, choose copy, then paste it into a post on here and then click the post button as you normally would. Image added for help

Re: Help needed please
 

Exactly and then hold it in a file that will allow me to keep it till I want to use it but it wont work when I put it in to the picture file on my documents

Thanks so much Ben.

Re: Help needed please
 

No, it won't.

You're better leaving it in the photobucket until you want to use it, then do as Ben has suggested above to get it into the post.

Re: Help needed please
 

Ya just to keep it till I needed it and wouldn't be using it staraight away

---------- Post added at 21:56 ---------- Previous post was at 21:54 ----------

Ah right. I done everything right so and its not possible so paste it anywhere so only to leave it in photobucet til its needed

Re: Help needed please
 

If you copied it to your computer you would only have to upload it again whenever you wanted to use it and then do as Ben's described above.

Better to leave it online in the photobucket and then link to it whenever you need it.

Re: Help needed please
