• Anything ‘published’ on the web is viewed as intellectual property and, regardless of whether it displays a copyright symbol or not, is therefore copyrighted by the originator. The only exception to this is if there is a “free and unrestricted reuse” statement associated with the work.

    In order to protect our members and TFL from possible litigation, all members must abide by the following new rules:

    1. Copying and pasting entire articles from another site to TFL is strictly prohibited. The same applies to articles from print or other media, and to posting photographs taken of copyrighted pages or other media.

    2. Copyright law provides for “fair use” of portions of a copyrighted work. You can copy no more than a SINGLE paragraph from the article to your post (3 or 4 sentences at most).

    3. You must provide a link to the article along with the name of website. For example: ww.xxx.yyy/zzz (The Lower Thumbsuck Daily News).

    4. You must provide, in your own words, a brief summary of the article AND your reasons for believing it will be of interest to TFL members. Failure to do so may result in the thread being closed or your post being deleted as a “cut and paste drive by.”

    5. Photographs and other images are also copyrighted. "Hotlinking" of images (so that it appears in your message) from other sites is also prohibited unless you own rights to the image. If you wish to share an image, provide a clickable link to it.

    Posts that do not follow these new guidelines will be altered or deleted by staff. Members who continue to violate this policy may lose their posting privileges at TFL.

    Thank you for your cooperation and your participation in TFL, the leading online forum for firearms enthusiasts.

Posting Pictures?

How do you post pictures a second time. I posted pics of my carry gun yesterday and when I went to post them againe it told me that they had already been posted and wouldn't let me post them. Please help!
 
True - you can't upload the same attachment more than once.

Try this:
Go to the original thread with your attachment

Right click on the picture while the cursor is over the picture

Select "Properties"

Either copy or write down the "attachmentid" number (usually a 5 digit number)

In your new post, add the "attach" keyword and the id number which will look like this:
[attach]15861[/attach]

and will yield a link to the picture where you want it like this:
View attachment 15861

-or-

you can use the whole URL of the attachment (from properties) and imbed it in the IMG tags so the picture itself will show up.
