Updating embedded image

Postby LeinadNightSky » Thu May 01, 2008 2:40 pm

I'm not sure if this is the best place to ask this but I was wondering if there is a free and easy way to upload a picture and embedd it somewhere like on a myspace profile then update the picture. I want to put a sort of "ad" on my friends myspaces that I can update to include our next scheduled practice.

Anyone have any ideas?

All you need to do is host the image somewhere (Photobucket & the like probably won't work because of how they do their filenames). Provide them the link, then to update it, simply replace the image with the new one.

I do that all the time on geocities.

Post an image on geocities, make a link on the forum, then discover the image is too big. Replace the image on geocities with a smaller one.

I would strongly suggest everyone familiarize themselves with the search function on this forum. Most of the questions you could ever think of have been asked by somebody in the past.

Go with photobucket. When you want to change the image, you can just go into your photobucket page and edit the names of the images from there.

Just make sure the images are under 1MB and are SFW. Apparently someone on their staff was unamused at my Guro folder.

I decided to go with photobucket and figured out how to get the thing to update, I hope. Here is what I made for the group.
