help with picture post
|
Can't Post
|
|
I just posted a picture on the end of this thread here:
http://newboards.theonering.net/forum/gforum/perl/gforum.cgi?post=891493;#891493
But all I see is a tiny box with geometric shapes in it. Could I have a bit of help bringing the picture up please?
Thanks!

(which I can see, in my editor)...I get the 404 url not found error.
What's the url of the pic you're trying to link to? (I can replace the link in your post.)

Trying to post it on my photobucket now:
http://i1328.photobucket.com/...0pic_zpsw99bgxti.jpg
I just can't seem to get a handle on posting the picture within a post on here for some reason  I have NO IDEA how people manage to do it so easily in the many Thorin filled posts 
I was hoping if you could post the picture into the actual post pretty please?

I tried to insert your picture as a link

but got a similar message - picture not found.
Is this a picture from your computer or is it one you found somewhere? If you are trying to copy a picture from somewhere on the internet, it's likely that the owner of the image doesn't allow hotlinking or copying, so you can't post it somewhere else.
I've never had trouble posting my own pictures from photobucket, but I frequently run into trouble with other people's images.

Photobucket account set to public access? If not, it probably won't allow hotlinking even if it's you doing it.

Roads go ever ever on
Under cloud and under star
Yet feet that wandering have gone
Turn at last to home afar.
Eyes that fire and sword have seen
And horror in the halls of stone
Look at last on meadows green
And trees and hills they long have known.

I couldn't get it to work using Markup, but once I copied the original's HTML code and posted it using "Markup and HTML", it worked!
(I also resized it a bit, to fit within posting guidelines.)
Very pretty! I've only seen that lake once, from within the city. It's lovlier from the hillside.

So you've been to cda then? It's very pretty
I don't live in that town, but I live near enough to drive to it We love the lake (and yes it's prettier from a distance, though not bad standing on the shore either- I got a GREAT sunset photo somewhere that I took on the beach a couple weeks prior to my engagement (had the ring been done at that time, as it was custom made, the proposal would have happened then, as I found out later).
I'm surprised, in all honesty- not many TORNsibs have been to my little corner of the world that I know of

when I was a teen, my older brother was helping friends build a house from scratch on their land in the northern part of the state, and we went out to visit and tour the area. We flew in to Spokane, then drove to Coeur D'Alene for the night, and the next day drove north...through woods...and woods...and more woods...
We'll never forget dinner that night. Mom ordered the local fish, and it was served with the head still on! Dad and I were in stitches, and she had to request that it be decapitated so she could look at it to eat it.
That would have been a lovely venue for a proposal!

Yup- there's lots of woods around here, and I'm VERY happy about that! (I do not like living within city limits in general- I want property too someday, though cda is very much a beautiful city, and so are the surrounding ones). Tree filled woods instantly relax me better than anything else, so I'm totally fine with it! 
ROFL! Don't worry- as much as I like fish, I do NOT want to see it wink at me on the plate either! 
It was gorgeous (we were next to the resort). And he had every intention to. But alas- I wanted a heart-shaped diamond solitaire that I would eventually combine with my channeled diamond ring (which has been done since then), so it was not finished in time for the gorgeous sunset
That didn't affect the later proposal (much) though- my husband took me to a park in Spokane near where I lived at the time that had a waterfall (it used to be a zoo, but was closed for violations and became a wooded natural park instead, only with a couple of bridges and a deck next to the waterfall pond), so it was still lovely 
That sunset would have been perfect for it though- we have spectacular sunsets around here!
