STEP 4
Be sure to:

Write in a caption for your photo.
Choose whether or not you want the photo to be part of your PRIVATE collection or available for PUBLIC viewing
at the Picture Hangar (http://www.onpoi.net/ah) website.
Select the appropriate CATEGORY by using the drop-down menu.

Then, click on the UPLOAD PICTURE button.

The file is now “uploading.” Please wait while the Picture Hangar (http://www.picturehangar.com) website processes your new file.

The Picture Hangar (http://www.picturehangar.com) system will show you the following confirmation screen after your file has been successfully uploaded:

After a few seconds, you will be automatically re-directed to your personal collection at the Picture Hangar (www.picturehangar.com).

This is an example of the My Collection webpage:

Congratulations! At this point, your file is uploaded and successfully added to your personal collection at the Picture Hangar (http://www.picturehangar.com) website.

How to…add the image to your message:


Take a look at your personal collection. Notice that the Picture Hangar (http://www.onpoi.net/ah) website automatically assigns the following for each file that you upload:

a web address (“Raw link”)
an Image tag
a Caption tag
a Thumbnail tag

The “Image tag” [ img ] is what you’ll need in order to add the image to your posts on bulletin boards.

Please click on the [ image ] link.

http://www.onpoi.net/ah/pics/users/77_1081311153_finalweb7.jpg




After you’ve clicked on the [ image ] link, notice that the appropriate [ img ] tag is provided for you in the code box.
Just highlight everything in the code box and copy the text (CTRL+C).

http://www.onpoi.net/ah/pics/users/77_1081310066_finalweb8.jpg




Now, simply paste (CTRL+V) the “Image tag” into the forum post that you are writing.

When you submit your new post, the image will appear within your message exactly where you placed it.

This screenshot shows you how I included my example image, which you will see at the bottom of this tutorial. I typed the words “My Example Image,” moved my cursor down to the next line, then pasted the Image tag that belonged to the picture:

I'm receiving some questions already...

Here is some additional information:
There aren't any bandwidth restrictions. Each account starts off with 3MB of storage space. We monitor levels each day and upgrade you as needed up to a maximum of 8MB.

If you need more than 8MB, you are more than welcome to setup a 2nd and 3rd account for free.

If you need more than 3MB right off the bat, let me know via the Picture Hangar (http://www.picturehangar.com) website. I'll take care of you.
