I am new to the forum and am keen to post my recent trip report but am battling to load photos. Can somebody please give me a blow by blow guide on how to upload pics on the forums. The instructions in FAQ do not help me much.
Any assistance will be appreciated.

It's easy Viv... Have a slow read here.
Just follow it, and try posting any photo here. I'll be able to see what goes wrong in your link.

Hi Viv :D

Maybe this will help...

To upload photos..

First off..you need to be a member of a hosting site….like Tinypic..Flickr, Photobucket etc.
Then you need to UPLOAD the pics from your PC into your hosting site.
Once that is done you can then select the pics…pick the correct size & copy the code.
Open up a SANParks window, paste the code & highlight it. You will see a button above the message box [img] . Click on that…it should bracket the code. Except for Tinypics..it will do that for you,
Preview the post to see if it worked…then submit.

Tutorial for Tinypics

Tutorial for Flickr




Please ensure that a photo is no larger than 150k. Keep the length of the longest side of the photo to 800pixels. Get resizing tips


Re-Sizing

Filling trip reports with many pictures makes pages slow to open. People with slow connections will not be able to enjoy the report.


Snap Duques :D
