I believe you miss typed the photobucket link. Better to just click on the "IMG code" located on the right hand of the photo, which automatically copies the link to past. Here's the result.



Best regards,

Jake

First off it looks like you are missing the file extension as well there is something else missing I'm not sure what, as well one last thing it appears you have two [img] tags at the front and two at the back all you need is one set here is a screenshot that I have it shows what you need to copy and paste to show your photos.

I think the something else was change from upper case to lower case in the url although I'm not sure why that should matter.

Best regards,

Jake

Just a note to make sure what you are sending out, posting photos, etc., works, click on the "Go Advanced" link below the posting window if it is not already open, then you can click on "Preview Post" and if your picture didn't show, go back and try something else. That has helped me numerous times!

You were using multiple IMG tags and left off the image extension type.

It looks as if you copied the correct bit from PhotoBucket, but it was unnecessary to then insert that information into additional IMG tags. Copy the text from PhotoBucket and then paste it into the forum post.

Additionally, the IMG tags require that you include the image extension type. This image was a .jpg and just needed to have that bit added to the URL.
