The Puffer Forum

don't know why it's not worked but if you copy and paste the url link then you should be able to watch it

don't know if it's going to work now, if not can anyone tell me how you do it.

The best way to post pics on this forum is via bbcode but you have to first UPLOAD your pics to either imageshack or photobucket.com as these will give you an url to a given pic youve uploaded.
So for e.g. this pic here I have uploaded on my Photobucket :
has the URL: http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s196 ... 1303870422, once you have an URL (internet address) for your pic you then have too place image tags on either side of it before the image will be posted.

The image tags are these here: ***********[/img] now you can either type these yourself or press the Img button above. Once you have img tags posted you then copy and paste your Pic URL into the middle of the tags like so:

vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

thanks mate, yeah he seems to be doing great. i think i was just worrying abit at first you all know what it's like, i think i was more nervous cause he was my first puffer. i'll post some pics up another day of him, got to sort it out first, to be fair it seems alot of hassel just to post a pic. i've been on other forums and on them you can just upload your pics straight from your user area on your computer to the site if we could do that on here then that would of been great and alot easier.

you cant upload on here like in UR mate some forums dont have that facility, so you have to do old skool ways with img tags.

Correction you have to do what I said above if you want to post pics in a thread, but you can upload your photos onto TPF and keep an online Photo Album, go here to set one up: ug.php?g2_controller=useralbum.UserAlbu ... d8c6765ef3 . That way you can either share links to pics or post pics via there URL's by using the [img]***[/img] tags I was telling you about. HTH

here's a pic of the puffer i think it's going to work

the puffer really looks nice mate

watched the video he looks really nice, makes me want one

ooops, Ignore Post

Actually, that's not true. we see lots of pics of puffers & then tell them to enter that pic in the POTM contest.

Hey great pic! Did you name your puffer? haha I guess we assume everyone has to name them, which isnt true, but Im curious. Yeah I agree, hes really awesome and it almost makes me want to get one... augh but my puffers are enough right now.

Hey that reminds me, I just noticed another bit of slang thats different between the UK and US... we say flashlight, you say torch!
