Question:
How to get photo in my profile?

I know this is not a surgery question. I put my picture into the file and all it shows is the outline and a red X in left corner. I am not very computer savvy, can somebody help me? thank you Brenda Minks    — Brenda Minks (posted on April 11, 2006)

I have a web page up at work using Front Page. I have to import the pictures from Front Page which is stored on the server at work in order for my pictures to show up on my profile. I know this probably isn't much help, but I think that if you check the main message board Pinalope posts quite often how to post your own pictures.

I have all my pictures hosted on Photobucket.com(which is free) and i just used the URL provided by photbucket to host the pictures in my profile. when you firt sign into your account it takes you to your home page where you can update your info. The first box on the left gives you a link to where you can put the URl then just copy and paste. Good luck!

I use photobucket.com to add my pics to my profile. It's free and easy. Just get your username and password set then start adding pics to the site. After they're uploaded, you'll see 3 different text lines under each pic (Be sure that your account is set up to show all 3 codes, go into account options and click yes on all 3). (I also find it easier to resize your photos to the size you'd like BEFORE you upload them to photobucket...this way you know exactly the size they will appear on your profile, ahead of time. I use PaintShop Pro 9, it has some really cool features...you can download a free trial version of this at jasc.com...or you can use something like irfanview, which you can get for free at irfanview.com) To post a picture in your photo section of your profile, paste the URL that photobucket gives you into the photo boxes in your profile. To post a pic in the body of your profile, paste the TAG line into your text box of your profile (where you put your updates) NEW If you want to put pictures side by side, and they are small enough to do so, just paste in the TAG line from the first, then put in 1-2 spaces, then paste in the TAG line for the second. (best is if you have them centered also, do this by putting in the HTML code < center > before the pictures (without the spaces) and the HTML code < / center > (without the spaces) after the pictures. The message board photos though, need to be added by the OH photo team, you can send it to them, along with your user name, user ID# and e-mail addy to [email protected]
