How To Add Pictures To Your MySpace Blog Entry Using Photobucket

I want to add a picture to one of my blog entries on myspace but I am having trouble uploading because the image size is greater than what myspace allows. Is there any way to add pictures to a blog on myspace when they exceed the allowed size?

MySpace caps image sizes at 1200K (1.2megs) which means your out of luck for uploading large pictures to your MySpace account. The work around is to use an image hosting service. One of the popular hosting service used by many MySpac-ers is PhotoBucket.com.

Photobucket is easy to use and its free. After you create an account you can immediately upload images, videos, even email pictures from your cell phone directly to your Photobucket account. Options exists for setting different type of image sizes such as avator, thumbnail, message board and screen resolutions.

Once you logged in to your account, you will see the upload section. The default number of uploads is three, but you can change this to twenty by clicking the add more bottom at the bottom.

Start uploading by clicking Browse… and navigate to the location of the files to upload from your Computer. When finished selecting the files. click Upload.

After uploading has completed, scroll down and you will see your images. To add an image to your MySpace blog, click in the URL link field. In my example I have selected the Watching The Net image.

Next, go back to your MySpace blog and click on the Add Image icon in the toolbar, paste the URL in the field and click OK.

Add any additional text to your blog and when completed, post your blog and you will now see the image as if you had uploaded it to your MySpace account!
