w6ish Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 i'm not too use to using this board and i have not had a good experience in tryin to post a photo. but lets give this a try. don't if i works. if not. you can always visit my own site: 6 Inch Heels for Men, on msn communites. where the photo is posted as of today. http://groups.msn.com/6InchHeelsforMen?white6inchspikeheels.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID-2
Bubba136 Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 Hmmm! Me thinkest you need some assistance. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
Tom-NL Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 Let's try this: http://groups.msn.com/6InchHeelsforMen/white6inchspikeheels.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=2 Mind: you have to be logged on m$'s Passport in order to be able to access the group in question, where the webpage with the actual picture is located.
Yamyam Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 And it seems that you can't use Mozilla either. There's a surprise. Obsessed is such a strong word. I prefer to think of myself as "differently enthusiastic"
jo Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 This is the way to make a link to an image, display an image, or link to a long URL: Linking to an image, with the image URL as the link text, available as a clickable link: http://65.160.96.70/hhplace/images/1054824706.jpg Linking to an image, making the image itself display in the message: http://65.160.96.70/hhplace/images/1054824706.jpg Linking to an image, where the URL is very long, using short text for the link: Nice Boots Use this latter style of link when the URL is very long; only the words "Nice Boots" appear on screen instead. This method prevents thread stretch. Remember that you can always re-edit a post to correct errors if any problems occur now or later. .
Firefox Posted July 7, 2003 Posted July 7, 2003 Thanks for everyone's help on this. In general, to link an image, first save it on your local hard drive ("save picture as" right button click gadget on the picture). The upload it to the picture server provided by bpalmatv (using browse... hard drive to locate where you saved it) http://65.160.96.70/hhplace/ Then follow Jo's instructions using the [ img] tags. Only post heel type interest pics on bpalmatv's server and only link to them on this board.

No, not tried that. Having said that, it seems to be a script problem. Because the group is an age-restricted one, I have to log in with my passport. But I keep being prompted to log in, I can't get any further. Bah. Obsessed is such a strong word. I prefer to think of myself as "differently enthusiastic"
Firefox Posted July 8, 2003 Posted July 8, 2003 I can see your pic Bubba. Very nice! Use internet explorer for browsing or posting. It's rubbish, full of security holes, and takes up too musch space for what it does, but it's the "standard" browser and compatibility kicks the rest of the issues into touch in a computing environment.
BobHH Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 When I try to go to White-6-Inch's site, I get a screen that says it doesn't exist. And I am an MSN member, too.
PJ Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 When I try to go to White-6-Inch's site, I get a screen that says it doesn't exist. And I am an MSN member, too. Interesting ..... The first time I tried, I got the Passport login page, then the adult user agreement, then a message that the page could not be found. But when I tried a second time, the site loaded along with the photo. click .... click .... click .... The sensual sound of stiletto heels on a hard surface.

I don't agree. I use IE for things that only work with it, but Mozilla's tabbed browsing environment is wonderful. Plus there's the bit about selectively rejecting cookies, the option to ignore advert graphic files, the way it does syntax hilites on view source, the cooler script support... and I'll do without some of the stuff that I should need IE for Obsessed is such a strong word.

Bubba136 Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 Thanks, FF. But, it's not my pic. It's the picture jo was trying to post. *url=http://65.160.96.70/hhplace/images/1054824706.jpg] The other two addresses he entered are the same pic with different addresses.

jo Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 >> It's the picture jo was trying to post. << Umm, I wasn't trying to post anything at all. I was merely giving the instructions and examples of how to post here. I just used an image that had already been posted in another thread, so as not to use any extra space on the server. It just happened to be first image that I came across. I hope everyone is able to follow the three different examples. As for browsers, I wouldn't use the Infernal Exploiter if you paid me. I converted to Mozilla long ago, and might consider Opera or Firebird, and not a lot else.
BobHH Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 Well, I tried again to get to the MSN site, and after fending me off several times, saying it couldn't find it, suddenly it was there! So, with his permission (which I got via the old board), here is the mentioned picture:
Firefox Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 A very nice pic in an appropriate setting. The browser wars continue! I'm not doubting that mozilla is a much better browser than IE, but those struggling to even post a picture are not interested in syntax highlights or selective cookie acceptance. They want to use a browser which is most compatible and get help on using it from the widest number of people. Hence my argument is not "what is the best broswer", but "what is the most compatible."
Bubba136 Posted July 12, 2003 Posted July 12, 2003 Hmmm! I gues I missed something along the line. I thought the image address that jo posted was one jo was trying to post. Sorry. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
w6ish Posted July 12, 2003 Author Posted July 12, 2003 thanks for your help BobHH. the pic looks good. the shoes on a downtown toronto street even look better!
Yamyam Posted July 13, 2003 Posted July 13, 2003 Great pic! And yes, Firefox, sometimes I forget that what makes sense to me as a relatively advanced computer user sometimes doesn't make sense to others. Oh well, that's me reminded again! Obsessed is such a strong word. I prefer to think of myself as "differently enthusiastic"
Alex Posted July 13, 2003 Posted July 13, 2003 It's called Geek-speak Yamyam. Some of us have it, other just wonder what it is I wish I was a size 10
Yamyam Posted July 14, 2003 Posted July 14, 2003 ...and there was me trying to be less geeky. Guess what didn't work then. Darn Obsessed is such a strong word. I prefer to think of myself as "differently enthusiastic"
Heelyfan Posted July 15, 2003 Posted July 15, 2003 Great picture! Only thing is, I'm puzzled about the colour of the shoes in the picture. White 6" Spikes told us they were 'Sherbet'. Maybe that sent me on the wrong track, but when I lick fizzy sherbet off the sticky lollipop of my sherbet dab, its an orangey-yellow and I thought the shoes in the picture would therefore by an orangey-yellow. Huh? .... Pon? ....... HUH? Is American sherbet black, Huh? ......HUH? Cheers, Heelfan
BobHH Posted July 18, 2003 Posted July 18, 2003 That's Sherbert, not sherbet. It's a style you can find on the Pierre Silber website, for one. It's a chunky heel platform shoe rather than a spike heel.
