Displaying Pictures from Photobucket.
Picture Upload -
The upload function in Photobucket does not require you to do anything but select the images that you want to put in your gallery. Once you select an image, it will be automatically set inside your gallery in order for you to manipulate it or share it by linking to another destination online such as your MySpace or Facebook page (or other photo sharing or social networking websites). The prompts are easy to understand and use, and the user interface is friendly to all levels of computer users.
The process for uploading images using Photobucket is simple, intuitive and user friendly. You can upload as many or as few images as you like to make up your gallery. Remember that you control your gallery's privacy and access settings, so if you do not want them to be part of the Photobucket public domain, make the appropriate changes when uploading the individual images to prevent others from using your images in an unauthorized or inappropriate manner.
All displayed pictures pictures in a browser (WEB) have an address; that address refers to a hosting (server) location. You can copy this address by right clicking on the picture properties on most browsers. Example:
The web address for this picture
is:
http://static.foxsports.com/content...-Fired-up-TV-Pi_20130201111402692_196_100.JPG
You can copy the URL and then click on the Image (the one with a picture) button in GTP and paste the URL into it. This button is just wrapping the address with
. GTP will refer to this address when displaying pictures; it does not actually host pictures itself.
Most photo hosting sites use a very similar method to accomplish the photo sharing; as long as the picture has public access and it is not restricted, you should follow the steps above or your provider's steps that can be found in their How To section.
When you are viewing a picture in photobucket there is a menu with image links which permits you to just click on a link and paste it directly as a URL into the link button (earth with chains) in GTP.
