(Oh, the things we could teach him!)

(Written by Jenny, simply posted by me, but we had the same thought at the same moment which has been apt to happen!)

In addition to discovering what an interesting, thoughtful, friendly and well-read group of people you are in our community friending meme (which is still open!), we have noticed something distressing! A lot of you don't know how to post pictures of, for example, Mesut's belly (or knees) into comments, and are unsure of how to go about it! Also: YouTube videos!

So here is a quick tutorial brought to you by Suzanne and Jenny so that we can have as many belly!spams as we want! (Please, please, please...)

If you want to post a picture in our community in a post we suggest the following:

1. Get yourself an imageshack or photobucket account. (If you need help with photobucket just ask...)
2. Upload the picture into your account.
3. Copy the new url for the picture (the "direct link" option in photobucket)
4. Head off to the comments and follow the directions in the following screen captures:


First type <img src=""> into your comment:




Then paste the url for your picture between the quotation marks:






Hit "post comment" and Mesut's belly will miraculously appear! (IT'S A MIRACLE!)

(Now that's what I'm talking about!)

For YouTube videos.

Beneath each video you can click on "Share" - "Embed" - Select "old embed code" like so:









Then post the code directly into the comment (no other code required):







Hit "post comment" and you are set to go!


New members are encouraged to practice in the comments to this post! (Do I need to beg?)

Love, Jenny and Suzanne!

(And I'll be checking to see if you're marked as spam when you do so, which may likely happen to new members. If so, I'll unspam you and you should do a couple of things: joi notaspammer and friend Jenny and I! Basically LJ thinks you're a spammer if you're posting links and have no friends. So don't be shy!)
