Massive image storing on my server

[loua_oz]

Hi,
I have thousands of pictures that used to be stored on a dedicated (paid) storage server and then linked from there into (another) forum posts.

Since my current agreement with my Forum hosting provider has everything unlimited, can I make a directory where my vBulletin is installed (as .../home/images/my_pics/), upload images there and use them as I need.

I tried with a small number of pictures in a custom made directory but could not get any images to appear in the (still testing) posts.

For example, if my image1.jpg is located at:

mysite.com/public_html/home/images/my_pics/image1.jpg

I tried as (using "insert image")



but it only brings a red "x".

From that dedicated external storage server it works like that. But not from my own server.



Edit: my bad. The path was wrong.

correct way to use images from my own site (remove blanks):

[IMG] http: //www.mysite.com /home /images /my_pics /image1.jpg [/IMG]
