I need some UBB help trying to get an image that is hosted here on AW to show up in a thread.

Tried clicking on the image in the image manager screen, then copying the url, but that didn't work. Tried searching help and previous posts - nada.

Can anyone help?

Many thanks!

DISPLAYING AUCTION MANAGER IMAGES IN POSTS

1. Click on the Image Hosting link in Auction Manager

2. Select the image you want the URL for and in the Action Panel click "go" (the default is already set to attach the image).

3. A larger image will appear - follow the prompt to the next page.

4. A box of HTML will appear - you need the first URL which will be something like
http://imagehost.auctionwatch.com/bin/imageserver.x/000db5a1/yourAWid/yourimage.jpg

Then just cut the url and paste it to your post and insert [*img] at the beginning and [*/img] at the end (deleting the asterisks) to activate the image.

Hope this helps!

Thanks Joice: I think I got it to work okay.

I really appreciate the promptness of your reply, too! AW is a great place to be!

bennybbb,

You just have too many http://'s in your URL.. AND that particular gif may not be appropriate for this forum. Try a different one!

TY Joice:

I tried three times with img, copying verbatim the code from AW. Then I tried url from Baytown and it works fine...AW down?

No, AW isn't down, you just had the URL wrong. I see you got it working now. Great!
