Title: Help! How do I get Picasa pics to show up in my post?
Post by: Caribou on May 09, 2012, 06:10:38 AM
Hi,
I need some tech support help with posting pictures from my Picasa account to the forum.  I usually use Photobucket with no problem but since I post so many pictures to my blog, which uses Picasa for photo storage, I thought it would be easier to post pics from there instead of having to load them to Photobucket, too.

Here is the code that I get when I paste the embedded image code for a picture:

And it's not working.
Thanks for any help, it's really appreciated.
Carolyn

All I did was click on the insert image icon. Then inserted your link with in the brackets. Good luck.
BTW. That looks good. :P

I too like to use Picasa because the software easily organizes images from my camera, uploads to my online albums, and then allows me to pick and choose images for neat display in forum posts.  The best part is that if you limit the size of your images to 2048x2048 (which is huge), you can have an unlimited number of images in your online albums.


Here's a tip if you want to use a smaller thumbnail display - just use the width" parameter in the img tag.  I set width to 300 in the code below, but you can use any value you like. Members click the image to enlarge it, and then click it again to return it to thumbnail.  You can center the image or even use it in tables

The image at 200 pixel width and left justified [click the image to zoom it full size, and click it again to return to thumbnail]

The code for the image above: (just replace the image url with your own image url)

The same image at 400 pixel width and centered

The code for the centered image
[center][img width=400]https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-8d7dKjUtb-s/T6e1MZUMN0I/AAAAAAAADKU/iuuYOGL99lo/s640/IMG_5100.JPG[/img][/center]

Images can be displayed in tables:

Code for using images inside tables
[table]
