Yes, you click on the photo attachment and copy the URL shown and then edit your post by using 'Insert image URL' button (the one with the mountains and the sun), pasting in the URL you copied.


Does that make sense?

If you mean a picture from the web you follow moo's instructions above but make sure the address you put in is the full address to the picture itself.


If it's a file on your computer you first attach as a file then when that is posted, right click and copy the URL/address and go back to moo's instructions again



Boom

One should actually have written 'Moos's instructions'. As in Bridget Jones's Diary....a handy populist reference to keep you on track there Mr Jack.

I had as little trouble with this at first too - the easiest way is to right click the image you want, select 'view image info' and a box will appear headed 'page info' with many lines of URLs including the one relating to your image which should be highlighted. Simply copy this then return to your post, select the 'insert image URL' button, delete the http:// it starts with and paste in the line you copied from the 'page info' window. Voila!

Although be aware that by doing this (described by maxxi) anyone who clicks into the thread will be using the bandwidth of the person who is hosting the image. Can be a problem if it's a personal website or personally hosted image. Used to be considered very poor "netiquette" to do this, esp if the end result is that you massively increase the host's bandwidth. Not sure if it is considered the same now?


All other forums I regularly participate have a clear ban on hotlinking, you must host the image yourself. {Edited to say they're all techie forums and probably have had that rule in place for ages, so may not be relevant to something like the EDF}

On my own pics (rather than those I find on line) I use MS Office Picture Manager (r click image and select edit option, 'resize' then tick 'predefined width and height' box and choose 'web large' in drop-down menu. This changes a typical pic from say 2.8MB to 125KB.

Under the video on youtube, there will be an option to "share". Click that, and further options will appear, one of which is "embed". Click that, and some code will appear l. Copy the code, and paste it un to your post on here, and hey presto, the video should appear.

    • Just had a carpets cleaned by Steve Nourse and his colleague at short notice. They are lovely guys and the cleaning was quick and carpets look great. Good value. 
    • Looking for tickets for 2 adults one child under 2 and one child over 2. However, please let me know if you have any combination of tickets you are no longer able to use.  Thanks 07756110500
    • all I said was "take a pro cash stance too far" - what twisting have I done?   plenty of good arguments for retention of cash - but let's not get too detached from reality either lest we go back to trading livestock   But to go back to your post DD:   "Or don't stop using cash" Yep plenty of people will agree with this - nothing controversial here   "Stop using your phone or even your watch as a banknote" - getting a bit weird now - why not - it's super convenient for both users and businesses. And far easier to keep a track of your balance using your electronic wallet than old systems of cheques taking days to clear, how much did I take from cashpoint 2 days ago etc. But people will differ so whatever works   "God only knows how much damage we're doing to the planet because all the above must require a hell of a lot of resources and juice from the grid" - big straw man argument here. Why bring this in? Unless you are also suggesting we don't buy any goods not made from within a 5 mile radius and nothing transported by air or sea? "a big lump of plastic with a screen and full of personal information that can be easily gleamed." I've had my phone stolen but nothing was lost because it was secure.I've been mugged and lost cash and valuable. It's not a binary thing   "your sky rocket with a phone in your hand. It's become a source of dopamine for many. It's an addiction for many."  Proper overreaching now
    • I agree with the posts that housing is an urgent need in Peckham and throughout Southwark. But as Alice says, it’s the percentage of social / affordable housing that matters. In October last year, there were over 4,200 households on the Council’s waiting list for housing in Peckham alone (over 17 thousand across Southwark). But the developer is only offering 35% affordable housing (which means that 65% will be unaffordable). Both Southwark Council and the GLA say that a big development like this should provide 50% affordable housing.   Re-development of the site is a great opportunity to make the town centre “cleaner, safer and more sustainable and welcoming” (borrowing Nigello’s great words). Is this dense development going to do that, when it provides no real green and open space where people can spend time outside and nature can help us tackle the growing problems of climate change like absorbing flood water, cooling the air on baking summer days? Are 7-storey buildings along Rye Lane (where the average buildings are 2-3 storeys) going to be welcoming to users of the town centre? How will the development impact on Peckham’s economy? Currently there is busy daytime commercial activity of shops providing for different demographics and needs including a rich offering of international groceries and other products, alongside a thriving night-time economy. I can’t see anything in the proposal that suggests how it will enhance and empower the local economy. Yes please, let’s have a great development on this site that enhances the town centre. This means not letting the developer get away with packing people into dense blocks that turn their back on the town centre and which will be a recipe for urban decay in the long run. Peckham deserves better than this!
