mykez69 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 just use photobucket mate, a lot easier or edit the pic in paint or something, and half the size of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamGTI Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 sorry for being a div but wots photobucket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykez69 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 click you sign up, and upload your photos there, i have never had a problem with the size and type etc once it is uploaded, you get a img code, which you just post in your messages and then the pic comes up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoo2000 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Saves a little bit of storage on our end, it's a free service provided by me, not escort evolution. We've had just under 19k uploads, that'd take 32gb of disk space if we allowed files above 1.75mb. Might in future incorporate an auto resize facility.

adamGTI Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 ok my pics r successfully on phoyobucket but they wont upload. keeps sayinf file not supported! any ideas peeps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwwd Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 The easiest thing to do is resize them in Microsoft Paint. Then you'll be able to upload them directly to Escort Evolution without any problems. Open up Paint and: File > OpenImage > Resize/SkewType in 25% in the Horizontal and Vertical boxesClick on 'Okay'File > Save As... Then save it on your computer. It will be much smaller and you can then upload that file onto this website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoo2000 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 The link needs to be something like photobucket.com/youralbum/blah/image.jpg instead of photobucket.com/youralbum/images?image=images234 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamGTI Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 im just coping and pasting straight frm the upload page. cnt understand y i cnt do it. ive shrunk my pics in paint and ive put them on photobucket but still wont allow it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoo2000 Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 If you've shrunk them, you can put them on evo-host too, you'll get a link that works on forums from there. It's the bbcode link you want from photobucket. If that doesnt work, post the link in a reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
