Hiya,
I've been trying to include pictures in a couple of my posts but I always get a repeat message saying
"It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image." I have tried using Photobucket.com, Flickr.com, and Postimage.org and I continue to get this same error message. I have tried to put pictures in using HTML code, BBCode, and have linked directly to the location starting with http:// and ending in .jpg/
Does anyone know why it's doing this and/or is there a place on here where I'm supposed to upload them first or something? Not to mention, I don't entirely understand what it means in saying it can't determine the dimensions because the above sites I mentioned allow you to choose the dimensions you want your image to show up in. I haven't had this problem with any other forums. Any help, advice, solutions, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

P.S. I'm aware I can just post the link directly to the image but I'd like to know how other people have been able to embed there's using the feature...

Here's the link to the full instructions for posting images in messages: http://www.druidry.org/board/dhp/viewto ... 25&t=24482. Is this the way you've done it and it's still giving you trouble?

Hi, Selene.
I'm just checking... that post is almost 5 years old. Is it still right?

Aha!
I was trying to link the pictures in through BB Coding. I hadn't noticed the the tab bar below.
I see the tag now for uploading pictures... Here comes a test picture.
Testing. Test. Test. Testing...
EDIT: Voila! It worked!
