The Conversion Corral

[DNO]

Photobucket went to a new interface a couple of weeks ago. It's still in the beta stage. I can upload but can't get to the tags. Very frustrating.

I can still right click on the image to copy the link. Doesn't work for you? (I'm on a Mac)

Scottyrocks - I clicked on the "use the old Photobucket" link and went back to the old setup, which I found much simpler. Look towards the top of the page. Frank.

I bought this horrible feathery thing on Ebay.

Thanks to a ribbon from Bond, now it looks like this

Good job Phin. The Ribbon is a nice match with the felt.

 

[Historyteach24]

Yea that looks a thousand times better

An unintended consequence though is that it turned the hat from tan into green.

frussell, I have tried this. The page goes dark and doesn't do anything else. The same thing happens when I click to get the image links or click on 'Add Effects.' Teh only thing that works is 'Your Library.'

DNO, let me try your suggestion.

I added the image tags manually. Let's see if it posts, and how big.

Hmm, nothing.

Nice job, Phineas. Looks great. I personally can't stand those flying feather bands.

Scottyrocks,

I was having the same problems with Photobucket last week. I sent them an email and they said there were some issues with the website but they had been corrected. They recommended I clear my internet cache and cookies. I did and it has worked fine since. If you are using MS Explorer you can clear the cache and cookies under Tools. Then restart Explorer. I hope that helps.

Thanks, Bond, Teach, and Bowlerman. Dano the actual color of the felt is somewhere in between the two pics. A light green.

Nice job, Phineas. Looks great. I personally can't stand those flying feather bands.

I can't stand them either. I have been looking for a green hat. I found that one cheap on the 'bay. I figured someone here would have a ribbon for it and it turns out Bond had just the right one.

Another attemp at posting photos. My other attempts were done from my tablet. This time it's from my desktop. Let's see what happens. If they don't come through please let me know.

You are doing it "half" wrong. On google+ albuns, open the picture you want. Left-click on it and choose "copy picture URL".
Write

and paste in the middle of the ][

You have "imp" typed instead of "img."

 

[thespoiler]

You also have to un-check that box there

I use Opera. But I have some cleaning programs that let me clean up my hard drive. I always leave 'delete cookies' unchecked. It's time to check it and run it. Thanks!

If this doesn't work then I'm going back to lurking.

Holy craptastic, I think it worked.

The ribbon is a little basic but it was my first attempt.

What do you think?

I like it. Maybe try trimming the brim to boot!!
