Soo Frustrated with my BYC page

[chicken_angler]

I have tried numerous times to get pictures to upload to my BYC page so that I can enter it into the coop contest but I can never get pictures to upload. Is there something else that I can try? I can post pictures on a thread but I cant post them whatever way I try to on my BYC page.

Thanks for any feedback,
Cody!!

Does this help you?:

IMPORTANT NOTE:
The BYC Page Tool uses DIFFERENT image codes from what the forum uses.
In the forum, to post an image you use the image

When you post pics using this BYC Page Editor you ONLY post the image URL like this: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/uploads/2_alana-chicks-shoulders.jpg
You'll notice there are NO img tags in the link to the image

Hey Chicken Angler:

I gave up on mine as well! I think I have a nicely designed Ark, but the BYC thing is so confusing, I finally said THWI!

I have never seen such a complicated system for handling pictures. I can post pics on my posts, but I seldom do as there are just too many steps.

I'm thinking that is by design, to keep pic submissions low.

Well, i got it finally. There is a Page creation video on youtube that I watched. It helped so much. https://www.backyardchickens.com/web/viewblog.php?id=2-Personal_Pages

Biobob- Try watching the video. It helped me and maybe it can help you post pictures.

Thanks,
Cody!!

I actually really like the image system BYC uses. It is more complicated, but you get to keep the image in storage, instead of having to dig through your harddrive every time you need the picture.

It is a little complicated, but dont give up, because once you figure it out, it gets easier!

This video has ALOT of information about putting pictures on your BYC page. It also clears up some other things I couldnt figure out alone.

Good Luck!!
