You can move this to another location or make it a sticky, but I want to keep personal family, friends or explicit sensitive photos away from prying eyes!

I noticed some have cut and pasted the incorrect links to your photos on Photobucket.

Most of the links will take anyone to your personal photobucket library and are able to look at and copy any photo you have.

IMG is the one that paste the photo you want all to see and will not link to your Photobucket account.
Since your password and user name is yours (thank God) no one can up load photos into your gallery.

Follow the directions below and you can't go wrong..


If your doing Photobucket.

Go to your folder of images (thumbnail size) it will enlarge when you click on the thumbnail now to the right five options to choose.

IMG Thumb Email & IM

HTML

HTML thumb Email & IM

IMG << in the box next to it click on it and it should say copy with a yellow background, or you can copy and paste. ::024::

IMG thumb


Go back to the forum and past that to your page like this>>>



Do not copy the one above it (HTML thumb Email & IM) or below( IMG thumb) or the top (Email & IM) as it will direct you to your personal photobucket when you click on it to enlarge and all the photos you have in your folder can be viewed by everyone..

Good points and no problem in making it a sticky. If you don't think this is the right place it can be moved again with no problem.

Re: WARNING! Posting photos ON this forum and tips!!

I think it should be in some place for everyone to take note, as we all post photos from photobucket or other photo sites on this forum.
It could get buried in time and simply by laziness of us old folks that don't search Lol! :D it could just become useless info.
Your call but I know some people that have put some personal photos on photobucket that they may not want the public to see.
Me, I have a photo of my old Boss with a goat!! Just kidding.. :)) :p
I don't know how other sites have it set up I have only used photobucket exclusively for over 10 years.
Although these link options may change in time with photobucket, in the 10 years I have used it they seem to be the same layout.

Another option is to add it to your Post Items for Sale Here.. list as a side note for sellers reference as well.

Re: WARNING! Posting photos ON this forum and tips!!

Site announcements is overall for the forum and it is now a sticky, because your observation is correct for anybody on any forum, not just here. Clearly, the message would have been lost in the For Sale section where you had it.


As for you, your boss, and goats, wells that's just a little TMI. . .

It was a joke!! ;)

I understand it would have been lost, but it came to my attention on a For Sale post and did note this to the author.

Hope this helps.
Cheers!!
