ok, I give up trying to find out how to do it via the searches. Does anyone know how to add a picture to a thread?

in the box you type in to reply to this thread or make this thread there should be a little box that says IMG another little box will pop up and place your link in that box, boom hit enter and presto.

Oh, did you want me to tell you how?
Below the "Your Reply" section there's an "Attach File" section. Click "Browse" and find the picture in your computer. Click on the pic and it's attached to the post.
If you want to show the picture in additon to attaching it click on the link to your picture (after you post it!) and get the URL to your picture (Hot Boat creates it for you when you've attached it to the post). Copy the URL and then click "Edit" your post. When your post opens up click on the "IMG" button (in the vB Code section) and paste the URL there and finish by re-submitting your post.
It's actually a lot easier than it sounds.

Go to hotboatpics.com and register there.
Once you are registered go to "upload pics" and upload them.
Once your pics are uploded click on the pic you want to post and then right click.
Select "properties" and then selct and highlight the URL.
Once that is highlighted right click again and select "copy".
Once you have the pic you want go back to ***boat and in the reply section you will se a tab that says "img" Click that
A pop up will appear that says "enter Url" Right click and select "paste" The you will se the URL
Once you ar eodne with all the pics the rest is just like a normal post.
You might want to try it a few time in the test forums.
Good Luck

I just tried that for the first time. Thanks fo the tip. Makes it so you don't have to upload to the image center. Looks like the only downfall is the pic is a little large for the screen

That's one of the advantages of the image center, is that you can
resize the pic by using -small.jpg or -med.jpg. after the properties.
Or -thumb.jpg.

Practice this: Put your cursor over a picture you already see.. Right click your mouse, Click "Properties", you'll see the properties to the photo in the box that appears.. Highlight the link (ADDRESS) of the photo (where it's hosted) Copy it using the right button of your mouse. Go to the reply box of a post.. When you hit reply you'll see the page with IMG on it... Click IMG and paste the properties that you copied.. submit your reply and you should see the pic...
Try this:
I just stole SKI's rig....

Or... I just stole you avitar..........
