Please download and save for your own use..... I used images from another site where I made the tutorial for so don't get alarmed that it's not our gallery.

This is a complete with photos tutorial on how to use the gallery.

Although it is a bit complicated from reading it start to finish, it really is not difficult at all to use and make your own albums.

This guide teaches you how to:

• Make your own albums
  
• upload images
  
• insert images into posts as clickable thumbs
  
• insert images into posts as full sized images
  
• how to make an ecard out of your images
  
• insert movies (mpg, mpeg only)
  

Maximum size for uploads is 5 MB! Anything else you need to host them elsewhere. Here are a couple of links to help you out - free accounts too!

Mediafire
Supload
PhotoBucket

If you do not understand something in the tutorial, please post on the board for everyone to benefit from.

There is also an image in the open gallery that shows you how to make clickable thumbs for posts.

Please name any albums with nudity with an OBVIOUS title as to what is in there and use a rated G image for your nudity album icon!! I do not want any nude images showing on the view all page. Some members may find it offensive.

Getting images to show in posts from the gallery

I figured how to get images stored in the gallery to show in your posts!

OK go to your photo in our gallery and view it as if you were looking at the thing and not the thumbnail preview.

RIGHT click that image and select PROPERTIES.

A new window appears and it will show an address for the image. Highlight that address and right click > copy.

Now come to the forum you want to post your image and select that little icon -> at the top in the area you post in and a new window appears. RIGHT CLICK in there and PASTE the address of the image and hit OK. Make sure you don't have two http:// 's in there before you hit OK.

VIOLA! Your image shows up!

See?

See this image? CLICK IT! Instructions are right on the image and it's posted in the open public gallery for all to see all the time!

If you need any more tutorials on how to use the gallery, TELL ME.

You can also upload your videos in here too you know. MPEG, mpeg, MPG, mpg are compatible as far as i know. I'll check for other file types.

NOTE: IE users, simply click the copy button on either code and it AUTOMATICALLY copies for you.

Firefox and other browser users.... you MUST right click and copy the code as per instructions on the image.
