Adding a photo to a blog

Dice · Thu, 2nd Feb '12, 10:48pm

I didn't think that this belongs in the techno forum so I'll ask here.

I was trying to add a photo to my blog so I could write something about it but when I pressed "insert image" and posted the ULR to link with a page on my photos, the image did not appear on my blog. What did I do wrong?

I'm sure others can offer better help, but in the meantime ... did you try copying and inserting the BB Code as opposed to the URL (listed just under it)? Below is an example from an old RAGE album I still have lying around.

I'm not sure if blogs might be different than posts as far as that goes though.

[ed. This also assumes you're pointing to an image that you uploaded to an album here at SP. Sorry if that's not the case.

You'll have the BB code to paste into your blog listed below each image in your album... it'll be easiest if you do it and if it doesn't work link to the blog entry in question so we can check what the problem is.

O.K. I got it, thanks. This was not the picture BTW, I ended writing about something else when I did the blog since I didn't have an image to go with it.
