I am moving this to the AAR thread and stickying it, because I think it is most relevant there.

Here is how you embed a photobucket thumbnail which links directly to the picture and doesn't open it in a new tab.

First, you grab the 'IMG clickable thumbnail for message board' link from your photobucket album. For example, it may look like this:


--- Code: ---[URL=http://s803.photobucket.com/albums/yy311/quickstix/AI%20War%20Report%201/?action=view&current=aiwar1.jpg][IMG]http://i803.photobucket.com/albums/yy311/quickstix/AI%20War%20Report%201/th_aiwar1.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
--- End code ---

Now, to link directly to the picture, you need to remove '?action=view&current=' from the URL opening tag, so it will look like this:


--- Code: ---[URL=http://s803.photobucket.com/albums/yy311/quickstix/AI%20War%20Report%201/aiwar1.jpg][IMG]http://i803.photobucket.com/albums/yy311/quickstix/AI%20War%20Report%201/th_aiwar1.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
--- End code ---

Finally, change the URL tags to iurl to stop it from opening in a new window, like this:


--- Code: ---[iurl=http://s803.photobucket.com/albums/yy311/quickstix/AI%20War%20Report%201/aiwar1.jpg][IMG]http://i803.photobucket.com/albums/yy311/quickstix/AI%20War%20Report%201/th_aiwar1.jpg[/IMG][/iurl]
--- End code ---

Enjoy.

Edit: Fixed the opening iurl tag in the third codebox.

I don't really care for PhotoBucket or ImageShack - the ads and slow loading annoy the heck out of me when I click for a full version :/ (they slip some ads right by AdBlock)

Instead I use Google's Picasaweb - ads are more understated, interface is cleaner, and it seems to work much faster for me.

Ive tried it but it only shows the red x... Am I the only on seeing this?

eRe4s3r:
Whats the code you are trying to use?
--- Code: --- [code] text
--- End code ---
[/code] is the way to display it without the forum parsing it (i think)

Oh.. i see the forum doesn't allow to display the code* of the code command in a code tag ;)
