No. I use www.mirrage.co.nr for picture hosting.

Its kinda dumb that people always think theres an easier way to do stuff..

I use Photobucket, and there is no charge. I have been using it for over a year now.
You just basically sign in with you name, e-mail address, and you are good to go.

Just use Photobucket. The only other option to a photo hosting service is using the "Manage Attatchments" button. Most of the time, those photos will have to be miniature to fit, or you have to shrink the file. It's so much easier to just use Photobucket.

He's lying! It's a conspiracy!

I used photobucket once, and my pics came out huuuggggee, so much so that I would rather just shrink them in photoshop and use 'manage attachments'. What's nice about a service like Photobucket is you can enter a long stream of photos in a single post.

I use the program "paint" to resize my pictures.

Open Paint.

Click on file, then open. Search in you files for the picture you want to resize.

Then click on image, go down to stretch/skew.

I change the horizontal & vertical to 75%.

Then click on file again, and go down to "save as".

I have a file in "My Documents" labelled "resized pictures" that I save these pictures to.

Now when you want to post a picture, below the text box, there is "Additional Options". There, click on the "Manage Attachments" box, and search your files for the picture you just resized.

looks just fine! remember, using outside programs, such as photobucket, ect. gives you the option to do mulit-pic posts.
I use photobucket for my video and pic needs, however, i do use XP to re-size them down to a 640 x 480 resolution first, so as to not make everyone scroll to look at pics.

ahh,,, the beauty of photoshop. I ran into the same problem when i first joined. Photobucket is retarded easy to use. set up your account, then upload your pics. copy the third line down, your image, and paste in your box here.
If you notice your pics being too big, ( check size first) then either photoshop will auto adjust them to 1 meg( still ginormeous) or use image re-sizer, ms paint, or if you have the powertools pack for xp, it will already give you the option to re-size when you right click the photo.
I am not familiar with the other photo programs offered out there, as i only use photobucket, but i am sure their layouts are similar. It also alowws you to post the same image multiple times, anywhere you want. Look at some of my shameless 350z threads LOL...i got that dang car EVERYWHERE!

*Looks Around* "No, no I didn't lie. No really! NOOOOO NOT THE WHIP!"

In all seriousness(is it even a word?), Photobucket doesn't work for some people. Many have trouble where Photobucket gets the retarded gene and resizes pics. I've heard of them getting really small, but never huge. If Photobucket causes you trouble, try Imageshack. If you guys are one of them blessed soles that can use "manage attatchments" and keep the pic huge, use that. The only prob is that you have to make 5 posts if you want 5 pics.

Call me a noob, but whats with all the 56k stuff? On other forums I see "56k Warning" on threads. What does it mean? Sorry for the stupid question, just kinda curious. :o

LOL??!! Intentionally trying to mess with those non 1337 n0085? 7l-l475 n07 nlc3!

56K warning is a warning to anyone using a dialup modem to access the internet, because if they try, they will encounter *Brutally long loading times* and/or timeouts.

I like the 350Z shot.

I like the picture of the cruise ship. We're going on one this winter!

It is l33tspeak, or elitespeak. After having a couple of friends become computer science majors, I learn a few things. It is a language used by hackers and the like. It's so confusing to most people (including past a certain extent, me) that Microsoft had a press release. http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/children/leetspeak.mspx

By the way, I said "intentionally trying to mess with the non elite noobs? Thats not nice"
