@rosemow I have tried a few of the photo sharing sites and I still can't get the picture to appear in my thread, just the link. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for your help.
Hello @SoulGal7
The picture that you are posting from imgur doesn't end in .jpg or .gif or .png
Is this the picture? If it is, quote my post, and you will see that it ends in .jpg
Try right clicking the picture on imgur that you want to post, and click copy . The picture button is the button with the little file picture on it above the forum post. Press the picture button above your post , paste the image address into the box, then press the enter button. Then the image address will be in your post ready to appear when posting your post.
The image address that you are linking to needs to end in .jpg, .png or.gif
Well, since I'm only 3 posts in, I guess I won't be posting Sims 3 pics for a while yet. 50 points, 30 posts and an account more than 24 hrs old, eh?

Thanks, rosemow, right now I'm suffering Sims Withdrawal because my CPU Fan on my computer is giving me problems (it's dying) so...so much for playing games on it right now and to add insult to injury...my wife is currently playing Sims on HER computer at the moment.

I am sorry that you are having issues with the CPU fan on your computer I hope that you may be able to get it fixed soon, and will be able to return to simming. It is very nice that both you and your wife are simmers. You would enjoy talking together about the sims in your games.
I really want to post pictures to, I'm starting a sim blog and I can't post anything!
Hello @CutiePaws123 Welcome to the forums! Wheh you have the required 50 points and 30 posts to,become a full member, , you will be able to post pictures.
I hope that you become a full member very soon.
@rosemow yes I uploaded them on photobucket. That's why I'm so upset I read all the instructions and I still can't do it
Hello @lisalittlesimmer
I am sorry that you are having these issues :;( Try typing [img][/img] in the post and put the image code address from the picture sharing site in between them.
Let me get this straight: The SIMS has a forum but relies on random external image hosts for images?
Hello
Pictures on this US version of the forums, need to be uploaded to an external image sharing site first, then links to the picture file address on the external site can be posted in posts. The pictures will then appear.
