 Huh  Is there a way to post a picture along with the web site link when a pattern is being given.  If we could see the picture, we would know whether or not we were interested in going to the link to get the pattern.    Thanks.

Sadly no....

"I just wanted to mention a little something about copyright laws.  First of all they are hard to understand, but there is one that I have to mention here.  We are not allowed to post patterns in the forum. You can post a link of a pattern so others can see it and get the pattern, or if you would like to share your patterns with friends via email, that's everyone's individual choice.  I would hate to have the forum be shut down because of breaking copyright laws so if you could all please not post the patterns in the forum, it would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

I don't believe 'brenoreo' was asking for the whole pattern to be posted on this site, but just a photo of the pattern that we would be linking to.  This is something that i used to do when posting links but since I have been having trouble with posting pics lately, I've stopped doing it.

Typically, I would right-click on the pattern pic from the linked-site, save the pic to my desktop, then when posting a new topic on this site under 'additional option' I would attach the pic.  That way the only thing you would see in my posting was the link and the pic, so the user reading the posting would still have to click the link to get the pattern, thus the creator of the pattern would get credit for the pattern creation.

mlmoore3's first sentence said very clearly what I was trying to say in my rambling post.  Just wanted a picture of item along side the link itself.  Thanks for clarifying what I was requesting. Roll Eyes
