Photobucket?

[je2wheeler]

Ok, I'll try again to explain Picasa..

1. Logon to Picassa
2. Click on a photo that you have uploaded to Picassa
3. A small photo that you clicked on will appear in the top left corner, click on that photo again.
4. Now a larger photo will appear, right click and then click on "properties".
5. A window will appear, find the URL address and highlight it and right click and click "copy"
6. Now you can post in XS11.com, in your post, type [img], then right click and click "paste", then type [/img]
7. Your photo should appear in your post here on XS11.com, GL

Well I made it to 5. The window appeared but of the 45 choices I had NONE were labeled as URL address

Ok, try this... right click on the picture that I posted here in post #15, click on properties, do you see the URL address of that photo? That is what you need to copy and paste into your post, except of course from your own photo that has been loaded into Picasa.

Yep, - https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-0...AAKY/Md6cBfeDS

But that does not show up with my picture.

You missed part of the URL, there is a third line that is hidden until you hover over it, it should end with .jpg

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-0...ly_moving2.jpg

Now if you place it between the [img] [/img] you will have your photo.

No we would have your photo, I got that following your suggestion of clicking on your photo and then properties in post #15, that is the URL from your post. The photos I click on in picasa still do not hsve a URL.

Ok, you have to right click on the full size photo, not the thunbnail photo, then copy and paste the 3 line URL.

Problem is, no matter which photo I click on, no URL is displayed. As I have stated, my computer does not like me. I sometimes feel it is trying to kill me in my sleep. You must be getting as exasperated as I am by now.
I can post photos on email, add photos to WP, Color Paint any where but any forum.

You are saying any photo you "click" on will not display a URL. I don't know how you do it with your machine but you need to "right click" (I'm using a mouse) on the LARGER version of the photo to be able to access the window that has "properties". Once you can view the "properties", you can copy and paste the URL, the complete URL. You will get it this time.

Phil...I followed your instructions to the letter but Picasa is not behaving the way you explain it...Once I am ready tp click on properties of a Picasa photo I get all the camera info etc but no img codes or URLs to copy...it doesnt matter what picture I click on...so there isnt any way for me either ...using Picasa...I really think we need to GO BACK TO PHOTOBUCKET because that will work...

JE, you are 140 miles from me one way...thats alot of miles for a house call...

No problem, I do appreciate it, it is the thought that counts.
I am vindicated! In your face Picasa!

IDK why this doesn't work for you guys unless they changed somthing with the newer version of Picasa. I have a video of how I post with Picasa that I will put up shortly.
