How do you add images on this forum?[/img]

Here's how I do it. I don't use the one-click buttons above the text input field.

1. I upload the image to ImageShack, using Matthew's neat little widget, below the text input field.

2. Once I get the URL information from ImageShack, I parse it into my own format. Here's an example:

Code: Select all

[url=http://img99.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc04236fq4.jpg][img]http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/450/dsc04236fq4.th.jpg[/img][/url]

The first http reference is to the actual picture (via the php call), the second is to the thumbnail that ImageShack generates.

Here's the result, a thumbnail which also acts as a link to the full picture:



HTH,
Chuck

Here's another way to do it, and you end up with the same result:
