If you would like to post a photo into either a Guestbook or Journal Entry, here is how!!!
(It might be easier if you open two windows or print this page...)

1. Decide on a photo to use and make sure that it is already uploaded to your Fotki.
2. Go to that photo and select "Share photo" under the photo subtitle and next to "add your comment".
3. Click on that to open the sharing menu.
4. In the sharing menu select "More sharing options" on the bottom left of that menu.
5. That will take you to a "Share Photo" page.
6. Select the size photo you want to copy the html for.
Choices are Album Size
pixel
pixel

or Thumbnail Size

7. Then go to the box named "Code for a Fotki Journal" directly below the photo and copy the string of html.
8. Paste that code into guestbook or journal entry box and the photo will appear.

TIPS.
1. Does not work in photo comment boxes.
2. There are also other codes there that you can play around with and utilize in other places.
3. Any photo that you can get to the "sharing" code boxes can be utilized regardless of who's Fotki it is.
In these cases these members have not disabled the sharing feature in their Account Settings.
Of course, in this instance one should always seek permission to share first.
Professional Etiquette always dictates that you should work with your own photos and or creations.

    Yayyyy! :-)

    Thank you Gary! I've been wondering about this issue myself in recent days, and I'm sure many more have.

    I had no idea how to do it and I didn't think that it's an intended function of Fotki . It just emphasizes the point that Fotki's PR is much inferior to its features.

    The only thing I don't like so much here is the photo sizes. A thumbnail is quite small, but on the other hand, I don't like my guestbook to be filled with big photos. Anyway it's still a wonderful feature.

    Thanks & Cheers!
