Default Why can't i post pics

Ever since the new forum started, I haven't been able to post pics. Anybody know why? At the bottom of the page it say's that I can post new threads, reply to posts and edit posts, but also says that i may not post attatchments. What gives? I also don't even see a link to add pics when I make a post.

Thanks
John

Have you been framing the link with img brackets like this; [img]insert web link[/img] ? That's how I do it.

i don't have 50 posts and I can post pics via photobucket no problem. You say the pic post icon isn't there so maybe you need to contact the forum admin, sounds like a prob with your account

At the bottom, where it says posting rules, it says html code is off. Is that the problem. If so, how do i turn that on?

no thats not the problem, it's always off and always will be, the site does not use html code, which is just using a bunch of < and > with characters in the middle, like <b>alsdjf</b> for bold, we use [ ] insead
