this isn't a problem, but I figured it wasa the best place to put it.

How do you post pictures directly off another website (like google)
onto your sig or onto a topic

thanks

You don't. You have to upload any picture to the Simviation server.

Crash ;)

Remember that it is not allowed to use images from other sited in the forums, you must upload them to SimV (look at the botton in the upper center part of the forums).

You must include the "img" with brackets [-img]-image link from simv server-[/img-] without the "-"

Your images are not recognised for some reason. They appear to be corrupt. I suggest you try again using file names without spaces. Make sure the images are actually in JPEG (.jpg) format before uploading them.

this is with the adding code button on, but it's the same with it off.

Use the [img] code for your sig but without it for your avatar.

Here's another one without a signature.
I tried to change the picture, but no succes...
It recently happened when I wanted to post pictures too. I followed the normal procedure, but no pics. Tried 4 days later, same procedure, different name, no problem...
Anybody any idea as to the cause of this?
here the signature pic:

mmm, apparently not...
this is without the [img] :http://www.simviation.com/yabbuploads/damnyank.jpg

that is strange, it changes the spelling when I post it, the m in daMnyank is changed to a r. Could this be the problem? It looks OK here, but not when I post it...


AND YES! apparently the forum has problems with the m-n combination in the file name, changing it to r-n...

It's the automatic censor. It doesn't like the word d-a-m-n. That's something I'd never even thought of. The fix is simple. Rename your image & upload it again. Use a name that's not likely to be edited.
