Upload and reduce pics size

[Monto P2]

Here is some information for people who dont know how to upload and reduce pic size

The first step is to register an account on photobucket

And after u have an account u choose to upload file from ur computer.u need to choose from options circled in red which will help u reduce pic sizes without using any image editing software.

After u have uploaded pics they will appear like this.u need to copy the direct link, where u can see the red circle

After that go az new thread or reply or pm

Click to the button as shown in pic below a small window will appear.paste the link previsously copied and press enter.
after this press save post and ur pics will appear

Hope this helps

This needs to be a sticky if it works.

Good post!!

Allow me to add a bit

If you'll choose the "IMG Code" instead of the "Direct Link"

you can then just paste the code into the post without the need of clicking the "insert image".

I also if pictured will be reduced to the max width of 800 pixels.
I suggest cropping the unnecessary background, this way we could get some nice pictures that load fast and do not require horizontal scrolling.

I may suggest to also save the pictures in the PNG format that is lighter and does not loose quality when shrinking the image.

I agree. Don't want this to get buried.

You actually don't even have to resize them, but the direct link is the easiest way to post them. Nice post Monto!

Monto,

I spent an hour making a thread on this a while back.

Everyone loved it, but no one would make it a sticky so it went away... Maybe you'll have better luck than I did.

Uploading a lot of pictures of your beautiful cues???

MULTIPLE Picture uploading::

Using Photobucket's Publisher Registry, you can directly upload multiple pictures using what is called "Publisher"
You can upload 50 plus pictures at one time. And it is a million times faster.
This will save you a ton of time, instead of uploading one-by-one.

1. Click on the Link Below and follow the steps
