    Posting photos to SZ



    Since we've gotten quite a few new members asking about posting pictures, here is a quick tutorial.



    Case 1 - The picture is on your computer or on the web, but you don't want to link it directly.



    1. Go to http://www.imageshack.us



    2a. Choose either upload "image" (if it's on your computer) and click browse to find the file on your computer.



    2b. or URL (if it's on the web) and paste the image link (will most likely end in ".jpg") right into the image bar



    3. Check off "resize image" and choose "640x480 for message boards"



    4. Click on "host it!"



    5. Copy the entire link towards the bottom of the page that says "
    Hotlink for forums (1)"



    6. Paste the link right into the body of your post.



    Case 2 - the image is on the Internet, and you want to post it directly (not a very good idea, since images sometimes get removed from the original website, but quicker)



    1. Right click (Control + mouse click on Mac) on the image and choose "copy image location" (not to be confused with "copy link location")



    2. In your post formatting bar click on the little green tree icon.



    3. Paste the link into the pop up window in the "image URL" bar.



    4. Hit the "insert" button.

    some browsers seem to have problems with the image insert function, ie nothing happens from the button.




    in this case, just copy the url, and paste it inside [img] tags, like this:




    (img)http://www.imageshack.us/picture.jpg(/img)




    just replace ( and ) with [ and ]

        I know this has nothing to do with posting images but how can I save images from flash based sites? Do I need a certain program to do so?

          i think most people use the painstaking, print screen > open ms paint > paste > crop > copy > paste > save as method

            Yeah, it's one reason Photographers like Flash-based sites - it's harder to download their photos. That's why I think (as a web designer) ecommerce sites and more public offerings are best as regular html. While they have to deal with bandwidth stealing issues from people who repost their images, they do get more traffic in a way by the referrals which is a form of advertising the sites.

                      Yeah how do you do it on a mac??

                      Oftentimes you can find cached flash clips from your temporary internet folders if you are using windows.

                      Usually somewhere around:

                      C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files

                      Just sort by size and most of the time the flash files are the biggest.

                      Also, I use a program called Orbit to download images that are not contained within a flash clip. It's a utility that let's you watch all of your browser download activities and save it to your HDD. You can downloa youtube clips as well, but it doesn't support all streaming media.

                        on the mac you can type: 'command-shift-4', then drag a rectangular selection anywhere on your screen - which is then copied to the clipboard. there's another key combination that saves the selection to a file.

                          one way is to, not optimal ...



                          shift+Apple+3 (takes a complete screen shot of your screen)



                          shift+Apple+4 (You can choose the screen shot area)



                          As some of you might know this will not work on all movie types, i.e dvd etc.,



                          but here is a nifty little application for that --> Capture Me



                          Edit: as explained above! [74]
