TopShelf TG Fiction in the BigCloset!
I would have liked to add some 'in text' images to the story 'Twins ?' which I have posted today. Haven't found out how to do it and have the images appear in the text. I have added an image here to show what I might have included at the end of the story (in this case). They are produced from Leonardo AI, but do show what I had in mind for the subjects of my story.

Inserting Images
Hi Columbine,
I insert images all the time using the "insert image" button on the menu above the "Body" box where you post you text.
Just make a space then click this button - the one with the sunset on it.
Click "Browse" and then "Upload" and choose a file from your files or downloads
At this point I just click on the image that appears and then click "Upload"
The path code will appear as a line of text. The image itself will appear when you click "Preview".
When you are finished just save it.
The problem arises when you want to wrap text around your images. For that you need code which is beyond me. However, members of the BC community have been known to volunteer there services. If you want to know how that looks maybe check out this link

You mean like this?
This is some text in your story. Then you use the insert picture button (Looks like photo of a sunset) Click browse and choose the picture from your list, click send to editor and you get this:
If the picture you want isn't in you list, click the upload and find it on your computer and upload it and send it to the editor.

Posting Pictures to a story
Once you've uploaded a file to BCTS all you need to do is add some image commands to make it work. It sounds daunting but it gives you a lot of flexibility.
NOTE: (replace () brackets with <> brackets - I'm posting it with () so you can see the code)
To post an single image:
(img src="{location/name of BCTS file}" width="300" height="450"/)
The {location/name of BCTS file} location should look something like - /topshelf/system/files/u17665/images/filename.JPG
Here's your image posted using that code:
I always shrink down the display file using the width/height command. In my experience, anything bigger than 600 height overwhelms the screen. I usually use between 200 and 400.
If you want to get really fancy you can create columns with the following commands:
AGAIN NOTE: (replace () brackets with <> brackets - I'm posting it with () so you can see the code)
(table)
(tbody)
(tr)
(td)(img src="{location/name of BCTS file}" width="200" height="300" />(/td)
(td)'This is my story. I am writing stuff here. (/td)
(/tr)
(/tbody)
(/table)
This creates:
You can post the image
with just using the width command and erasing the height from the picture stream. For example (Replace [] with "<"">")
[img src="/topshelf/system/files/u1973/files/the-second-of-five-images-of-winter.png" width="600" /]
That works just as well.
