pics in recipe
« on: October 28, 2010, 03:44:44 am »
Hi,

How do i insert my pics in the recipe I want to share?
I did click on the insert image button but it just shows this [image] wherever my cursor is at.
Help. And can we do a draft before posting?

Thanks :)

You can Preview, but not do a draft.  I generally write recipes in Word and then cut and paste & pretty up later.

With pics !!!!  have fun - http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=191.0 - there are options and these may not be the best !!

I use photobucket. Then copy the address to here and it seems to work.

Thank you. Just did a test run with the Additional options. Works! Just need to resize my pics first.

Soon...... :D

JFLim,   after much help from both  Thermomixer and JudyDawn,  I managed to past pics.   But I had to down size the photos on the camera first.   This may help.

I think it would be a great idea to have somewhere some simple instructions for new members on:

a)  adding photo's to posts
b) hyperlinking
c) searching
d) how to do oven temps with the sup key
e) anything else that would be useful

Thank you achookwoman and creampuff63.
I've somehow gotten the hang of it and have already successfully posted two recipes. :)

Appreciate your help and suggestions. :)
