Very basic step by step guide to uploading pictures to photobucket.

First up if you don't have a photobucket account you will need to sign up for one. This is very simple and just a case of filling in a few details.

Step 1
Make sure you have 800x600 selected in the 'reduce to size'
Then click choose files


Step 2
This will bring up a box where you can find your pictures.

Few little helpfull hints

Click once to select the picture
If you are selecting lots of images hold down the Ctrl button on your keyboad and select seperate images like shown.
If you want to upload all the images in a folder press Ctrl and A and this will select the whole lot

Once the pictures have been selected click 'open'

Step 3
When the pics are loading you get a little progress box.


Step 4
If uploading single pics hover your mouse over the image and a drop down box apperas. Click in the IMG code and copy the link (go to step 7)

If uploading lots for pics select the little tick box on the pitures you want to use. (go to step 5)



Step 5
Scroll to the bottom of the page and select 'generate html and IMG codes'


Step 6
This brings up a new page displaying all the codes. It may look like a mess but you are looking for IMG Images for message boards. Click in the box and right click copy.( it should select all the text when you click in the box)


Step 7
Goto the post that you wanted to add the images to and right click and paste.


You can now click on submit and continue to make you message as normal.
