I can't do it! Is it me, or does it have something to do with the upgrade?

It shouldn't have anything to do with the upgrade. How are you trying to do it?

We scanned and downloaded my book into my documents, then we put them on Photobucket, and we tried various ways to link them. We tried thumbnails images, but they wouldn't enlarge to a readable size. We clicked on the HTML code and on the Direct link and I even tried to cut and paste a link, but nothing worked. We are flummoxed. Do you have any suggestions?

To post images here, you need to put [ img] url [ /img ] without the spaces in between the brackets. However, there is a limit to the size of pictures that are allowed to be posted here, so you might want to just link them.

HTML is not allowed on the forums; is there an option for BBCode? Also, if you're using BBCode (the [img] tag is BBCode), then there is no size limit of which I am aware. The forum plays no part in the display of the image.

No, there is nothing at Photobucket labeled BBCode. There is Email & IM, there is Direct Link, there is HTML Code which you said is not allowed, and there is something called IMG Code. That's it.

That'd be it. I used it a couple of times here with pictures of my froofy poodle.

BBCode is what we use here at the board. It has nothing to do with photobucket.

Very true, however if you want to post an image here from photobucket, just click that img url that they provide and paste it here and voila.

I finally succeeded. It was the img url, as you said fourpasonthefloor. For some reason, it came out backwards, with the first scan last, but at least it worked. Someday I will learn how to post them in order and then I will consider myself a computer whiz. :computer

Thank you!
