Ok, so how do I post pics ?

[Gyro]

I only joined a couple of days ago, so am I not allowed to post any pictures at the moment ?

If so, what is the criteria to change this ?

Cheers,
G

There's a tutorial here:

You can upload your images to some picture-site. And link to them from there. That's how I do it. I use http://upload.snelhest.org/. Simple. Very rudimentary functions. Good for the odd picture, but not any smart functions to edit or resize or albums or searches.

Use the browse-button and upload a picture: ("Bläddra" means "browse")

Then just copy the BBCode for forums and paste it into your message.

i will need to get my head round this as well; it,s a disgrace i hav,nt yet ! i have had an ipod for a good few months now and could not even download tunes from itunes until a friend actually came in and showed me . although i can do this easily now i dont think it is straightforward for the beginner ,same as these image hosts ,frustratin or what

I don't have any options to attach pics, just all them smilies that annoy me ... !

Is it because I'm new here ?

And how long does it take until I'm allowed to add photos ?

That's right!

No. I'm new as well, and I post pics.

And how long does it take until I'm allowed to add photos ?

You can do it now! But only if you read the instructions in the previous posts in this thread.

Right, I'll concentrate harder then .... !

Ah ok. I've seen this before recently. Go to User CP near the top left of the page, click Edit Options and then scroll to the bottom of that page. In the Miscellaneous Options box I think the Message Editor Interface will be set to basic and if you set it to standard, you will get the extra buttons.

But you still can't upload pics to the Bushcraft forum? You still have to insert an external link?

[scanker]

That's right. You have to use photobucket, imageshack or similar.

 

[Gyro]

Does this work then ?

 

[scanker]

If you're a lamb-chopped Hugh Fearnley Whittingstallalike with a bow, yes!

 

[Gyro]

It works then !

Thanks for that, I was going to raise a simila rpost myself. I have been struggling with the same problem and have fixed it with your advice.

Slightly off topic, but were do you shoot Gyro?
I havn't seen you around at any of the competitions I've been at (like the County Clout a few weeks back).....I never forget a stick

 

[Gyro]

I'm in Norfolk, and have only shot (past tense at present, unfortunately) at my local archery club in Cromer. As of yet, I've not entered any competitions. Thinking about popping down to the Oyster fayre at Colchester next year though, and would love to do a clout shoot one time, but I don't know anywhere locally that does it. I think I remember seeing that the Fakenham club did something like that ... ?

I'm somewhat 'out of the loop' at present ......

 

[ForgeCorvus]

I'm Kings Lynn
The County Clout was at Fakenham race track on the 12th........I came 3rd in gents longbow

Fakenham do a four discipline shoot at Easter. Thats target, field, clout and Popingjay (now that really is a weird one )

If you're looking for a club to shoot with PM me and I'll find you some details

 

[Gyro]

Do I need to be in a club to enter the clout comp ?

My club in Cromer is fine; it's just finding the time that's the problem .. !

(Although, they're mainly 'modern' rather than traditional. For a while, I was the only one with a lngbow..)
