Hi all just wondered , and should have asked before now really, how do you post something on here say for example a TR7 is for sale on ebay, i can do the normal paste pic, but not sure how to paste an ebay Ad over onto here, saw a white TR7 for sale on ebay and was gonna post it over and comment that was all. Many thanks as always

Or you could do this so people see the picture of the advert

then they can click the picture to go to the eBay advert

Like so 

[url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1980-TRIUMPH-TR7-CONVERTIBLE-BLUE-with-Rover-V8-engine_W0QQitemZ130298004011QQihZ003QQcategoryZ29760QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]

[/url]

This is the codes to do it 

[ u r l = " Your web http Link " ] [ i m g ] Now at this stage go to the advert picture you want to show right click it go to properties and copy the url address and paste it on here[ / i m g ] [ / u r l ] 

Some say it is long winded but i think it looks good

If it's not broke don't fix it.

just follow what i have done in red remember with no spacing in between the letters

for your link it is 

1. [ u r l = "

2. Your copyed url link here http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0298004011

3. " ] [ i m g ]

4. Now at this stage go to the advert picture you want to show right click it
go to properties and copy the url address and paste it on here like this 

http://i.ebayimg.com/01/!BP1NMjQ!mk~$(K ... ,WqpBJ1o8o)SN!~~_1.JPG

5. [ / i m g ] [ / u r l ] 

give it another go

If it's not broke don't fix it.

I wrote the "How To" several years ago. You will notice that it is one of the top four postings in "General Wedgie Chit-Chat".

[url="http://www.forum.triumphtr7.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3738"]Here is the link![/url] OK, now figure that one out!

I think I'm there.

I don't seem to need the last [ / u r l ] after the image code bit.

I think where I was going wrong is I was using the 'insert hyperlink' code thingy from the options toolbar.

So it seems to have worked when I typed the code in and used the inverted comma's.

Cheers mate.

Hey Shaun,

Go to the picture you want to use and copy the location. Come back here and paste it into your reply. Now highlight the hole thing by draging the cursor over the link. With the whole URL highlighted, click on the "insert Photo" Icon (

).

Now go find the link you want to associate to the photo and copy that. Come back here and highlight the whole thing we inserted first including the brackets ([ ]). Click on the "Insert Link" Icon (

).

Now in the first set of brackets you will see url with a closed bracket. Now you want to type ="" between the "l" and the closed bracket, giving you l="". Now place you cursor between the quotation marks like so("|"). Paste the URL in between the quotation marks.

Your done. Easier to do than to say!

Hiya

I thought that this looked like quite good value:

[url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=220390801609"]

[/url]

I've saved the code: [url=""][/url]

so I just have to copy and paste and not remember!

And now I understand why you out the spaces in - as it sees it as code and not as text.

[ u r l = " " ] [ i m g ] [ / i m g ] [ / u r l ]

Soooooooo, I guess the same principle applies to a signature?

Cheers,

Shaun
