Really been wanting/needing to start a build thread for the beat to crap project we bought over a year ago, but don't know how.
Been saving pics along the way, just not sure how to post them.
THANKS!

Put your pictures on Photobucket in an "album". (Happens by default) View them as thumbnails (also default). Then hold your mouse pointer on one. A drop down menu will appear with four linking options. Choose the lowest one "Image Code" and click on it. A small message will flash "copied". Go to the VMF and post. When replying be sure to use the "Go Advanced" button. Right click in your text and paste, THe Photobucket code should paste. Preview your post to make sure it worked.
For multiple pics you'd have Photobucket on one tab, or window, and VMF on the other. Then flip back and forth doing one picture at a time. Or that's how I do it anyway.
Here's a link to a tutorial that I did awhile back. Should tell you how to do it no problem. The Photobucket layout has changed some since I did the tutorial but it should be more or less the same with the buttons just shuffled a bit.

How I do it...
Left click on "Direct Link" (in Photobucket).
Left click on Insert Image icon that's above the reply box.
Right click in the box, then left click on "Paste" in the drop-down menu.
The image location address gets inserted into the box, with your blinking prompt at the end of the line.
Back up (left arrow) to the beginning of the address...
If there are two http:// erase one of them.
Now you do it....
You can start with a poster-size pic of your sig picture!

How do you adjust the pic size and delete the report image message?

When you upload pictures I believe that there is an option to specify picture size. There's no way to remove the 'Report this image' tag as it is for other members' use (i.e. if someone posts an inappropriate image, other members can flag it so it is taken down)

You specify the size on Photobucket, not when actually uploading the picture on this site. If you navigate to the picture on Photobucket, hit the 'Edit' button, then at the bottom of the picture a bunch of icons will pop up. Click 'Adjustment' and then 'Resize' and change the size accordingly, then save the picture - it will then be the correct size. Then use the hyperlink to that picture (as demonstrated in the tutorial) to link onto this site. Hope that helps.
