   Trevor has hit the nail on the head, it is good manners to ask first tO use a photograph

   Sorry mate, but you have that all wrong.
   You have uploaded your photos because you want them to be seen.
   You have disabled sharing & downloading, which is your right.
   If anyone feels your photos are worthy of sharing with a wider audience and directs them to your own gallery or website, they don`t need your permission, and are respecting your rights and restrictions; in fact you should be grateful that they respect your work sufficiently to go to the effort of linking to your own gallery. It would be just the same as linking to the 'Look inside' feature of a book for sale rather than copying and pasting chapters & photos online.
   I would apologise to Chafford for the copyright theft suggestion, it`s completely the opposite!
   
   When posting photos from someone else`s site, I will always add a credit & linkback to their site as a matter of courtesy, and if asked, would remove. []

   That is interesting info Nik, I have now ammended my above comment.
   
   But I won`t be apologising to anyone !
   
   I still think it is polite to ask first.

   239 by Nikbj68, on Flickr
   
   What you need to do is add inverted commas either side of the url texts so it looks like this: [url="http://www.flickr.com/people/19127134@N00/6220299956/"], then it works like this:
   
   
   239 by Nikbj68, on Flickr

   
   The same now applies to Photobucket, when you have copied the code and added it to your forum post, you have to add inverted commas like this:
   [url= " http://s134.photobucket.com/user/nikbj68/media/NiksnextCobra.jpg.html " ] to not have a line of code before your photo in the post.
   The result should change from this:
   
   
   
   to This:
   
   
   
   Happy photo posting folks! []

Thx for the info.
   So, if I've understood you correctly, there is no way to do this except if you use a site like Picassa?
   
   Is there a reason for this, I have some difficulty in understanding why its not possible to drag and drop like most other sites/forums?
   
   Hope you can help me out here, to be honest, I'm not v. keen to set up an account with a photo sharing site for the sole purpose of illustrating issues with other ACOC members.
   
   Thx
   Nick G

   I am not the administrator of this forum but I guess the reason is that you need a much (MUCH) bigger server for a forum which allows uploading of pictures and movies. This one here is a really small forum in terms of memory consumption. Please, someone correct me if I am wrong.

[nikbj68]

That`s basically it.
   I`m happy to 'host and post' photos for anyone who, for whatever reason, cannot; simply contact me by clicking nikbj68, you can then email me your photos, and comments if required, for insertion into any particular thread. []

nikbj68 have we as a club, correction, you as a club tried Facebook for further interaction socially as respect posts? It seems that would solve the memory issue on picture posting? I will be joining in the new year now I have an ac Buckland in my possession. I believe there is an acoc Facebook page but by and large inactive. Should we could we try some new avenues for interaction?
   
   Thanks for all you do! I'm looking forward to membership in 2016!

Oh Rob, you have to put up with some rubbish scenery in NZ! Now if only you can find a way to make the door stay shut...
