loading pics to the gallery

hi gang, finally got my pictures taken - have them loaded in photobucket - how do i get them over to the gallery now... i don't want to resize & change again off my main computer - do i have tooooooooo???

can i load directly from photobucket? step x step help please!

I'm not sure if you have to resize again, Linda. When I scan mine, I resize to 600x600 pixels, then I upload to the gallery. I don't use photobucket for my layouts.

Do you normally use photobucket to resize them??

no, never used photobucket until here. i can't post to messages here unless i use photobucket!!

i don't scan, i take photo's and then upload... just seems like i have to go through them in adobe and then put them in photobucket and then have them on my laptop... kinda long pain in butt - which is why not much in my gallery... oh well, as long as they are here in the challenges and such - i don't need the gallery really!

have to go clean and get some scrapping done - 28 days - 28 layouts - ack, what was i thinking - lo!! only using the stuff off my desk to clean it up too -yay me!

You should be able to load them to the gallery straight off your computer. That's how I do mine anyway. I just hit browse when it asks me for the name of the photo. Then I find it on my computer and upload it. Not sure how to do it from phootbucket though. Sorry, I'm not much help.

Yeah, I upload from my computer too. I'll check to see if it can be done, uploading from photobucket...

I usually upload to the gallery from the computer/memory card, then go and post it wherever...

Anything that's posted in the gallery can be posted here. What I do is open the lyout in the gallery, right-click and the click on PROPERTIES (at bottom of the box that opens). Highlight the ADDRESS (URL) and copy it. Then I open a message on the forum and paste the address there. Add the {img} and {/img} at the beginning and end of the url -- just change the {} brackets to the sqaure brackets []

Linda... I use photobucket to uplod to the forum. As far as the gallery, it is easy now, we can just uploas from our computer. Are you in the right gallery? "The new one".

I do what Carla said!!!!!!!!

Yes uploading to the new gallery is so much easier than the old! Picture size is no longer an issue.

thanks gang.... it seemed i had a bad problem with loading - then it worked last night fine... weird...

Have a great day everyone & Thanks again~!!
