How to insert images

[MysticSparxman]

Hi everyone!

I've been on BlueMoon for a while now, but I'm just curious as to how I can insert images into PM's and threads. I know how to insert links, but it's just images I'm not sure about. I also use my phone to post on here more than anything.

Hello!

You can add images by using the little picture frame near the link image! You can drag an image into the box or click the little chains on the box that appears and use a link!

Let me know if you run into any issues!

Hi there!

Okay, so I've tried using the little picture frame, and I'm not able to drag a pic into the little picture frame in PM's. However, it seems to work in threads.

So you can drag the image and upload it as an attachment like you are doing, or you can click that chain link beside it and insert the link instead. I think you'll find that easier.

To add an image with BBCode you'll want to use [IMG]URL HERE[/IMG] or [IMG WIDTH="###px"]URL HERE[/IMG] to adjust the width

Okay, so I don't seem to have an issue dragging and dropping an image in threads. However, I don't get the drop image box open up in PM's. I'm only able to put in links. I'm also using a phone here on bluemoon, so I don't know if that effects it in any way.

Im usually always using mobile ( shouldn’t be effected ) ~ I don’t tend to run into many problems with inserting images. I do believe that linking is the only option when it comes to placing a pic or gif in PMs though.

In PMs, you don't appear to have the same image-linking functionality as you do in threads.

You can link images, but they don't display in PMNs as they do in threads.

Are we able to upload images in PMs? I thought you could only insert images in PMs if you had a url link.
