In our team forum, I would like to post a pic of our offense and defensive depth charts.
I have the pics on photobucket now and I posted in the [IMG] [/IMG] code, but it will not display a picture.

Are we not able to post pics in the forums?

Sorry if this information is out there. I read through as many FAQ's as I could and did not find this information posted anywhere.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
JD

Or you could just give everyone a lol gm title and everyone can see the depth charts

You'll have to provide a direct link. You can't use IMG tags on the GLB forum.

Some users will use the Text to Image Add-on for Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/text-to-image/

I am not the owner of the team, so that is not my decision.
But thanks for not answering my question.

InRomoWeTrust, thank you, that is what I did is just provide a direct link.

Bort didn't add an IMG tag for good reason. Providing a link is the best solution, for now.

He really should, maybe have the image queued for mod approval

That has been talked about. It would need some sort of approval and reporting system to work. It would also have to be URLs only. The amount of data to host thousands of images wouldn't be worth it.

It's always a challenge as you have to flirt some position of 'safe for work' and 'not safe for work'. And of course those lines differ greatly from GLB's forum rules

Leaving things as links puts the onus on the user.

Bort also is a big fan of the simplicity of the forums. One of the things that makes the forums great is that It's not covered with post counts, star ratings, statuses, graphical signatures, etc.

That being said, I don't know if he will ever implement IMG tags.

Most boards make my eyes bleed with all the flashy sigs, ads between posts, ect...

And you could always blacklist and greylist urls.

In the meantime, you can use TinyPic. It's what I've done.
