Help adding Pic's to a trip report

Post by theshopper3 »

Hi,
I have finally finished our trip report of The Cook Islands & Australia & now want to add a few pic's into the report, but can't figure out how to do it.
I have all the pic's in Picasa & tride to copy the URL from the pic but that didn't work.

I hope someone can help.

Thanks

when you select your photo in Picasa do you see over to the right it says "link to this photo"

if you click that you would see html code under embed image and just under that you can select a size.

I chose medium and then I copied the code under embed/ Click the img button above your post, paste the code, then click img again. Hit preview to see if your photo is there. If it is click submit.
Picasa brings over some extra code that you don't need. you might be able to edit it out but if not it's fine.

Boy MaryAnn,
You sure are quick.

Yes, I do see that. I think I copied the stuff that said to embed image.
Awesome, I will try that.

Thanks for the help.

Using "Embed image" only does work from picasaweb even without using the "Img" button here.
Choose size, then click box "hide album link", then click on to highlight that code in the Embed Image box, then right click, then copy and paste into your post and you dont even have to use the "img" code here. If you dont see it in Preview, then youve done something wrong.
