This is short tutorial on how to link to photos in your multiply.com account from SGSHOOT.

1. First you need to find out the link address of your photo. To do this go to your multiply page and choose the photo you want to link to. In the example I want to link to the photo circled in green.

2. Click on the photo to view a larger version.

3. Right-click on the photo and select "Copy Image Address" (for Safari browser) or "Copy Image Location" (for Firefox browser). For other browsers please refer to your browser documentation or help.

4. A this point you can create your post in SGSHOOT if you haven't already done so, and paste the image address. Remember to enclose the image address with "" and "" tags.

5. Click on the "Preview Post" button to view your photo in your post.

6. What if you had uploaded a high-resolution version of the photo? If you had done that you will see a "Zoom In" link above the top right corner of your photo.

7. Click on "Zoom In" to view the high-resolution version of the photo.

8. Right-click on the photo as you did in step 3 to copy the image address and paste the link to the photo into your post as in step 4.

9. Click the "Preview Post" button to confirm you can see the high-resolution image in your post.


That's all there is to it. Easy? :coolnod:
