I need help (Yes, yes, i know you all know that already)

In the past I've been able to put photos on here using photobucket but for some reason photobucket now crashes my stoopid browser every time I visit the site.

Someone said flickr was another option for putting photos on here? I haven't had much of a look yet but can't really work it out properly - how do I resize the pics and then where do I get the IMG code to attach pics on OhBaby.

Alternatively - if anyone knows how to make an http link into IMG code (so I can just use what I already have on picasa online) then tell me how to do that pretty please I am so sick of having photos in a million different places online!

TIA!

Yeah Ive given up on Photobucket.
I have tried using flickr, and for some reason, when I go to preview my post before I submit, it says "This photo is temporarily unavailable" So I have given up on flickr too!
You can just put [IMG] just before the http code. and then put a / and then [IMG] at the very end of the URL.
You can also just click on the "Add pic" icon above (The little pic of the tree) and that works too.

When you upload your facebook photos, right click on the photo and select "properties" from the grey box. The URL will show up in a grey box. Copy the URL, then come onto the OHbaby site and in the forums click on the tree icon, then paste the URL into the box that comes up (Delete the first http thingee first that comes up) that "Should" work.

Hi I use flickr, I only upload small images so not sure about the resizing bit but to get the code for use on here select the pic then click on share this (top right of page) then it opens a box with drop down boxes over to the right, open the one that says "grab the html" copy that code and then paste it in here. You then have to add the image things same as you do with photobucket but you also have to delete some of the code at the front. When you look at the code there is two http, delete everything before the 2nd one.
I hope that makes sense, pm me if you still can't get it to work.
