How to Put Your Images into a Message - UPDATED

Joel Greifinger · August 13th, 2020, 06:36 PM

In addition to the option of sending your .jpg images to one of the site administrators listed on the Home page, an easier and more direct method is to use one of the free image posting services on the Web, like Postimage.org or Freeimage.host. Postimage.org is particularly easy to use, you don’t need an account and it provides options to resize the images for you. Please don't post images that are more than 800 pixels wide.

Once you have dragged and dropped your images onto their Home page, a list of Web addresses for them will appear. Copy the "Direct Link" address(es) and paste them into your Turkotek posting, adding [img] before and [/img] after each Direct Link image address.

When you click on "Preview Post" on the page below the text box, your images should appear where you have positioned them in your post.

If, for some reason you are unable to get the images to appear, feel free to contact an administrator who can insert the images into our server and send you instructions on inserting them into your post.

Hi Joel

Is the rule of 800px maximum width still presiding? Screen resolution growing and so on (And I do think I see some violations of the rule around the threads

)

Well, I'll answer to that.
For the time being, we still prefer a width of 800 pixels.

Exceptions are there to confirm the rule

.
Regards,

Filiberto
