HEY GANG,

I'm still unable to post pictures on the main forum...I tried those instructions that I can understand and they don't work.

But those well-intentioned, really complex and involved instructions just overwhelm me! They're appreciated, but I just can't track 'em!

I know this sounds incomprehensible, considering my long Boeing career as a technically-minded lab test engineer, but this is what Alzheimers does to an otherwise intelligent man.

Yes indeed, Gentlemen...

I also can't post pictures and have quite a few saved up, ready to unload to the masses.

I have tried to register with the "http://pics.weberkettleclub.com" site, and haven't been able to get it to send me a confirmation e-mail.
I guess I could sign up for one of those other photo-hosting sites, but would really like to have this all on one site.

If you're using yahoo, yahoo blocks all of our email from weberkettleclub.com :(

A lot of us are in the same boat.  They will not be getting one penny from me.

Thank you for creating the WKC Pics service. It took me a few minutes to get acquainted, but it's working. Having to part ways with photobucket is irritating, but I appreciate having a solid alternative here.

I don't think I'm a fool, but I can't figure out how to post a photo on the forum. I couldn't find an option to do it when creating a new post or replying to a message. What am I missing?

@RobberHut - If your working from a desktop PC, here is a great tutorial on what is required to post photos here on the WKC Forum.  If your using your phone, someone else will need to chime in as I work from my desktop PC.

Still getting requested for help in posting pics.... so I just put together what I already had to make it even more easier to understand for new members wanting to post pics here in WKC forum.

First you need to understand that a pic from your pc or phone ---> need to be uploaded to a picture hosting site ----> then you need to use BBCode address provided from the hosting site pic to link it to your post.

1 Create an account here:  pics.weberkettleclub.com image hosting site. Once your account is set up, you should be able to sign in.


2. Now to load a pic to the image hosting site from your computer stored pic. Once you are signed in....

click on " start uploading" or the small icon where I have the cursor to start.


You should get this.  Click on "take a picture" where I have the cursor.


You should get something like this in your computer where you can pick the pic you want to load.  I click once on the pic I want to highlight and click open at the bot. right where I have the cursor.


You will get this.  Here is where you can resize the pic if the size is too large.  Click on UPLOAD.


Your pic is now loaded to the image hosting site. Scroll down on the same page and should look like this.  See how "About" is highlighted-underlined. Click on "Embeded Codes"


Copy "BBCode" link as shown. It is the 6th link shown. Put a cursor over to the right and Copy shows up. Click on Copy.  You just copied the pic BBCode address required  and ready to paste it into your post in this forum.




3. From your post, to paste your copied BBCode link - Ctrl+V or right click on the mouse and clicking paste. This is how it looks





This is how it looks after you click on Preview button at the bottom right. Your pic now shows up at the top. Click Save if you are ready to post.





Now, you have just linked your pic just uploaded to the image hosting site to your new thread/post/reply. Have fun posting pics of your kettles.
