Simple steps for posting pictures on g&g

Oxford · 08-09-2008, 01:59 PM

At the request of several members on g&g, I've written the steps I use. Good luck.

Oxford

1.You must use a digital camera to take pictures. If you don’t use a digital camera, stop here and consider getting the least expensive digital camera which would work just fine.

2.Take pictures of whatever you want.

3.Download your pictures to your computer.

4.In gunandgame.com…use the appropriate forum for your subject, and open a new thread. Or…if you want to reply to another thread…it’s the same process to post pictures.

5.At the bottom of the screen you will see the words, “Manage Attachments.” Click on that to open the next screen.

6.You will see six different rows which say, “Browse.”

7.Click on the top “Browse.”

8.Then you will see options in your own computer where pictures are stored.

9.In my case, I store all my pictures in the option called “My Documents.”

10.Open “My Documents.”

11.All of the pictures you’ve downloaded from your digital camera will be there…so scroll through them and click onto the picture you want to post on Gunandgame.com.

12.Click onto the word “Open” at the bottom of the screen.

13.That will cause your screen to revert to Gunandgame.com’s screen which shows the word, “Upload.” Click on “upload.”

14.The picture will take nearly 30 seconds or more to upload…but eventually you will see that your selected picture has uploaded.

15.If you want more than one picture to be uploaded, go back to the “document” screen and find an additional picture to upload. Keep uploading pictures till you’ve completed all the pictures you want to upload on a new thread.

16.Next scroll down on the “Manage” screen to where it says, “Submit New Thread.”

17.At this point you have posted a picture (s) of whatever you wanted on a new thread…or simply posted a picture on a “reply” to another thread.

Hopes this works for you…and good luck.

Thanks Oxford. Now if I ever get a camera I will know how to do it.
I was wondering how hard it was,but you made it sound pretty simple.

I do the same as tippmann...but i just save them to my desktop not my documents, but the same idea.

cammo · 11-07-2008, 09:23 PM

do you need to have the internet on your phone to do that?

4rum · 12-14-2008, 05:01 PM

You do not need the internet to take the pics if your phone has a camera. You WILL need to be able to connect to your providers network. You will also have to send the pics to a valid email ... which requires the recipiant (you or some one with an email address) to have internet access.

Some computers now have an SD slot. You can take the SD card directly from your digital camera and upload them into your computer.

Two suggestions:
1. Download a free editor called Irfanview. It is small, easy to use, plays well with all your other software and will let you resize, crop and change file extensions very quickly.

2. Open a free photobucket account. They are a pic host and will host a bunch of pics for free. You can make the account private if you like. It will also let you copy and paste the clickable code for thumbnails. This will make the folks here happy as it saves TONS of bandwidth and server space.

Hope this helps

Thanks, Ox. I printed this information.

Brother Bob...keep in mind that there's more than one way to post pictures on G&G. What I wrote works for me.

Feel free to check out other methods that work, too, which were also posted by others in this thread.

Good luck and I'll be looking forward to viewing your pictures.
