Google Picasa Web Albums image embedding

[Hunt]

I bought a new camera that take nice images but they are BIG. Can I load the images to my Picasa web albums and embed them to the RME forum? How do I make them show up in the post and not just the link? I know how to do it with Youtube videos.

If it's anything like Photobucket (like I use) it automatically resizes the pic when I upload it. Either way, once it's uploaded you can just put the image tags [img ] and [/img ] (minus the spaces) around the URL, and it's an embedded pic.

First you need to know the direct path to the photo.

Example: http://www.example.com/user/album/photo.jpg

Click the photo icon above in the toolbar then click "From URL" then uncheck the "Retrieve remote file and reference locally" and paste the photo url into that box.

I'm not familiar with picasa enough to know if they allow you to directly link to them.

Got it thanks Herzog.
