I was uploading piccies of my rescue dog and after uploading several it said I didn't have access to the page and the album along with photos has disappeared. Plus I don't have access to the album link anymore to make a new one :(

Have I done something wrong already :S

save any photos to your documents

then go on to photobucket and click upload photos,

click thumbs then the pictures will come on..


if you hold Ctrl and click on the photos at the same time you can up load more than 1 photo on to photobucket then click open.

wait for the pictures upload..

once they do click the picture and scroll down until you see IMG code under the photo click it and it will then copy..

come back on to the forum right click and paste onto the thread then press submit and your photo will be on here..

**** sounds complicated but its real easy to do..

I think members albums are restricted to either none (for new members) or very few (for everyone) photographs because it takes up a lot of space on the forum which would cost more money to run.

As Claire has said, you can use Photobucket to upload pics to, or if you already use a different photo storage site (like Flickr etc) you can upload to here by right clicking on the picture and going into 'Properties' and copying the URL web address. Whilst you are writing you post, when you want to insert the image, click the icon which looks like a yellow postcard with mountains on it and paste the URL address in here - it should be a http:// link which ends with the file type, eg. .jpeg or .gif etc. Click 'Preview' before you post your thread, just to check it all looks how you expect it to because you only have a few minutes to edit if it goes a bit wrong. Once you are happy, submit your thread :)

Yeah I know how to do the Photobucket thing. But I could click on my name when I first logged in and there was a link to the side saying "photo albums", and I did actually start one. Uploaded about 10 pics no problem, then it just disappeared, so assume it was disabled. Nevermind, long as I know it's not just me haha!

Ahh yes I think they are disabled to save space. I don't know why they are there then disappear though, they should just not be there in the first place.

Why don't you do a thread about your rescue dog in the 'other pets' section? I'd love to see the pics :)

Welcome to the forum btw :)p

OK thank you :D :) I've got LOOOOOOOOOOOOOADS. I couldn't choose so put a load up hahaha

But yeah I agree, it'd be better for em to just be disabled straight away :)
