How to post pictures from Xmark's Frequently Asked Questions.
" One of the first frustrations many people experience, as a new member of the forum, is trying to upload a photo into a post.'
Here on X Marks we have a saying. "If there are no pics, it didn't happen."
Unfortunately you cannot upload pictures, graphics or photos directly onto the forum from your home computer. You must link to your photos that are published somewhere else on the web.
To do this you must first upload your pictures to a website.
It can be your own website, or to one of the online photo and video services such as Photobucket.
Once you have the image stored on the Web you then create a link to your photo and post the link in your post. (Photobucket actually gives you the image link which you can simply copy and paste into you post.)
If you are using another website to store your photos you must carefully copy the entire URL address of the image from the web. Then type the URL into your post surrounded by image brackets. [img] " " [/img]
It is usually easiest to open a second window in your browser. One here to X Marks where you are posting, and the other to the website where your photos are stored. This way you can see both by switching back and forth to copy and past the URL address.
You will want to type all of the following on one line, with no spaces or breaks.

(Please remember that you need to use the http:// convention with the Web address. Using just a www. will not work.)
The IMG tags you use to surround your URL are looking for a Location address, with an image extension, such as .jpg - not an .html address.
