hi,

if anyone would like to use our permaculture photo gallery for hosting your permaculture-related photos, then you may sign up for an account here.

after registration, follow these steps to get your pics uploaded:

1. from the front page, click the "User Galleries" link
2. click "create/order my albums" button
3. click "new" button
4. rename your album from "New album" to "yourname's photos" (or whatever you like)
5. click "apply modifications" button
6. click "continue" button
7. click "upload file" link at top of page
8. follow the instructions to upload your files
9. after upload, be sure to fill in the photo details, name, description, and also choose your album from the droplist...

(please, no pics larger than 1Mb in size.)

the benefits of using our gallery: it's a permanent spot for your permie pics and will get quite a lot of traffic from the official PRI site, plus you can point to them in your forum posts here... also - i might even hack up a widget for the forum so they show up here somewhere, randomly picking from the user galleries.

let me know if you have any questions...

Tried all the above and ended in frustration with "unable to create directory" so no picure upload? Sure you clever people can sort that out in no time flat. I notice no one else has pictures yet so keep chipping away at the coppermine for ore to send to the smelter? :o

okay, so I have figured out how to make an album and how to upload a photo to the PRI page, how to I insert that picture into my post?

hi richard

1. right click on the picture, choose 'copy image location' in Firefox, or in IE, right click, choose Properties, and copy the image address.

2. come back to your post

3. insert the image URL by wrapping the URL with braces. so it looks like [img]imageurl[/img]. (note: your image URL should look something like this: http://photos.permaculture.org.au/galle ... 28_043.jpg)

Aha! Thanks Murray. Let's see if I can follow those seemingly idiotproof instructions.
