Posting pictures on Reef Central using Photobucket

This is for those of you that have asked about how to post pictures on this forum or any other forum. You can also share online photos via email, facebook, myspace, etc.

Here is the photobucket website: http://photobucket.com/

1. Setup an account with Photobucket if you do not currently have one. http://register.photobucket.com/

2. Sign into your account. You will verify your account via your email you registered with first.

3. Create an album. This is optional, but if you do not group certain photos into an album, it can get difficult to keep track of a multitude of pictures. (i.e. You can create an album called "28 Gallon Nano Reef" to keep track of photos for that particular thing, while creating one called "Vacation 2010" to keep things organized.

To create an album:

a)Click on the "Upload to: your photobucket name" dropdown at the top of photobucket.
b)Then click on "New Album" and only check the "add as an album to" box if you are wanting to add an album to another album. Like adding a "12-2010" album under the Nano Reef album to keep track of when photos were taken.
c)You then need to choose between Public or Private. If you are sharing to forums, you need to choose "Public."
d)Now simply select "Add Album."

4. Choose the album you want to upload to. Toward the top of the screen you will see "Upload to: album name" that you can click and select from the list of albums you created.

5. Select the photos to upload. Click the "Upload Images and Video" button. A select box will pop up for you to browse your pc to the location of your pictures on the hard drive or sd card. You can select multiple pictures at one time by holding down the "Ctrl" button while clicking each photo in a particular folder. After making the selection press "Open" and it will start uploading your pictures.

6. Add titles, Description, and Tags. After all your selected photos have uploaded, you will be given a screen to add title and description details to each photo. It isn't necessary, but it could help you remember about the subject you photographed. After you are done entering details just click "Save." It will then take you to the photos you uploaded in the chosen album.

7. Post your photo on Reef Central or other forum.
a)When you hold your mouse pointer over the picture you want to post, a list shows up below it. (depends on your photobucket preferences)
b)Click on the "Image Code" section and it will automatically select the whole line of code.
c)Now press and hold the "Ctrl" key while pressing the "C" key on the keyboard. This does a copy.
d)Then start a new post or reply on the forum
e)Now press "Ctrl" and "V" keys on the keyboard to paste the code. It will start with [img] and end with [/img]
f)When you finish the post and save it, it will then show the photo instead of the code.

8. Post more Pictures. Repeat steps 2 - 7 as many times as necessary to share your hobby with the world.

There is a much better website to post online images. You can post albums or individual pictures. It's very fast and easy to use.

Just go here

It's called Imgur

I am actually liking the minus.com service better than the other picture hosting sites. The file size limit of Photobucket and Imageshack are currently 5MB, while Imgur is 10MB. Minus has a 30MB limit on files which is nice. I'll share more info after I test it more.
